I find the lack of a hardware eject in the new iMac G4s somewhat disheartening but so far, the worst that's happened with a bad CD is that the system made me eject it.

However, I don't listed to audio CDs on my Mac so I'm unconcerned. --- AKF <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Where did you hear this and which iMac(s) are affected? > > > > --- Don Hinkle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I heard yesterday that a "known issue" with the new iMacs is > > that IF a > > cd gets stuck in the drive, the hard drive gets trashed, > > totally!
