no longer "blacklisted" drives or manufacturers with their driver code, but they never did remove the blocks
they wrote for SCSI products. Many have hacked the code with ResEdit or used after market drivers to get
around Apples limitations. As you say, it isn't an issue anymore unless you use the older SCSI products. Paul C

Concering non-apple CD-Rom drives...
I've always had Apple SCSI drives because i want the headache, but amazingly to me, when i converted everything in my S900 system to IDE, i put in my cousin's IDE CD drive from his Sony VAIO desktop. It worked flawlessly.
Perhaps it's a new mechanism? I don't know. All i know that it's not SCSI and it's not apple, but it works. Perhaps 9.1 is more tolerant?
i'm running 9.1 CD attached to a Sonnet ATA-100 PCI card.
just tossing out this info...
