A local Sun user wants to take a look at a CDROM that Sun sent him, but  
when I put it in the NeXT CD-ROM drive it spins round a few times, then  
ejects with a console message that the disk is unwriteable...

Should the NeXT beable to read a Sun CDrom?  Or is that in some sort of a  
clever Sun specific format?

Thanks,

Scott
