Hi Laura,
I can assure you you can install Mac OS X 10.6 via an external DVD
drive as
I had to 2 weeks ago due to an original MacBook's internal drive being
flaky. So you could still consider the external drive option - as
you can
get USB drives on eBay for around $60 or locally for a little bit
more.
Regards,
Chris.

Subject: Re: Mac Box Set
Thanks Alex.
I did look at that option, particularly as my MacBook does not have a
DVD burner only a DVD reader. I've been led to believe that it's not
possible to use an external drive for an operating system upgrade. I
would be interested to hear otherwise.

Why don't you get an external DVD drive and use the disks. Should be
cheaper than either option

Good morning all
If there is anyone interested in purchasing a new Mac Box Set, at a
reduced price, please contact me off list. This includes the Snow
Leopard upgrade as well as iLife 09 and iWork 09.
Because of a problem with my MacBook optical drive I am unable to
use the software, nor can I return it because, obviously, it has
been opened. To repair the optical drive will cost at least $350.
That, plus the cost of the software is almost half the cost of a
new MacBook!!
Cheers
Laura
