I had trouble using the macbook internal drive under XP Vmware. It in fact
forced a VMware XP power down - haven't seen that before.
Under Mac, the disk is not mounted and only a re-start of the machine ejects
it. It is not listed under Finder. Usually Windows formatted CDs/DVDs mount
fine under OS X and are readable.
It auto-starts with a `USB external drive under XP vmware, and it works in
Firefox.
