Apple writes about the newest (combo drive DVD/CD-RW) G4 PB: "Slot-loading DVD-ROM/CD-RW Combo drive The PowerBook G4�s slot-loading DVD-ROM/CD-RW Combo drive plays CD-ROM, audio CD, DVD video, DVD-ROM and *** => DVD-RAM discs <= ***. Want to burn your own music CDs? That�s easy: Use iTunes to burn audio files and the Disc Burner feature in Mac OS 9 or Mac OS X to burn data CDs." My questions: - what about capacity and performance of these DVD-RAM disks? - where can I purchase DVD-RAM disks working with the combo G4 PB? Price? - Are these DVD-RAM disks compatible with other DVD drives like iBook DVD-drives or the SuperDrive in Desktop G4? Does anybody have a clue on this? Thanks + CIAO! Claudio cfrigerio@gmx.ch
