The problem is, the Mac needs a SCSI CD-R, the laptop almost certainly has
no SCSI port, so unless you could get a SCSI card for the laptop, then
she's had it. 

If the PC can have a SCSI port added, then any SCSI CD-R will work, as long
as you have software for them both. 

Anyone know if Toast is cross platform?
