I imagine we're talking Ebay for the above drive, unless someone here has an appropriate drive to sell me. Will I be able to install the 8.6 using the existing original drive? I imagine the answer is yes. Then when booting into the new system, there'll be no CD drive until I resolve the issue. I've been saving some of the CDROM threads for a while, I'll read through them to see if I can make sense of the situation as it applies to me. I'll be coming up on 8.5, then needing to install the upgrade CD portion. I'll need the correct drive/driver then. Thanks again! cj -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
