Hey guys, You will find Toast 5 to be a carbon application. The same copy will run in both environments. In your case Allan, you will probably find that you can launch two copies and burn to two different drives at the same time provided both copies are running in OS X. I haven't tried it because I only have one burner.
You will also be somewhat amazed the first time you see multi-threading occur under OS X. I'm pretty sure that Toast doesn't support multi-threading but Disk Copy does. Disk Copy can actually create multiple disk images simultaneously. It's a cool thing to watch, as if you were doing multiple file copies at one time. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
