Hi there, New to group.
I've recently acquired a Flower Power G3 iMac, but it's got a CD thingy rather than a DVD thingy. I'm going to do various things to upgrade it. The fact that it is fanless & has a CRT makes it ideal for light media duties in, say, a bedroom. I really do prefer to watch video on a CRT. Historically, most video was shot for CRT output. Does anyone have recent experience of swapping the cd thingy for a modern slot loading DVD drive? Can it be done? And will OS9 recognise a modern device as a DVD-ROM? I want to upgrade to Tiger at some point - doesn't it generally come on a DVD? Or can I go the USB route for a DVD drive? I've got other devices that don't have an optical drive and an external USB DVD drive would be useful but I can live without - internal DVD drive in the iMac a much preferred solution. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's iMac List, a group for those using G3, G4, G5, and Intel Core iMacs as well as Apple eMacs.
