DVD-R Software

I don't have a DVD burner, but according to the roxio website, you can write to DVD-R's as well.

From the apple web site i found this:

Basically, you don't really need any other software. It's incorporated into the OS.

 

It just dawned on you that OS X is such a great system...and it only took you 14 months and 22 days to figure that out. Bravo.

But, I'll admit, there have been a few features in OS X that make things a little easier that I would not have found in OS 9.

Let me check, can I burn a DVD in OS 9 with a blank CD installed?

Nope!

 

Yeah, I knew what you meant. I just responded w/some tasteful humor.

And OS X just keeps getting better. Remember when B2TM posted about having "Jaguar" on his iBook 600 and said it soared? That obviously means we are going to have some significant speed increases for the final Jaguar.

And I am growing a bit impacient. My iBook 466 is starting to feel a little sluggish. But, then again, I'm only walking around with a 66MHz bus and 128MB RAM. Go figure!

 

Now I am going to tamper with your emotions.

First, the easy. No, I am using 128MB of RAM on my iBook straight up on OS X. I even got the Classic enviornment running with just that much of memory. Classic took around 2 minutes to startup. Overall, there have been no stability problems, but I have had a few playing Sigma Chess for some odd reason.

Now, a shocker. You may have seen this before.
I did have OS X running on my original iMac. That's right. I had OS X running on a 233MHz computer, with the 66MHz bus and ONLY 64MB OF RAM! OS X ran as slow as the living blue heck, but it did run perfectly stable (except I could not connect to the internet, and I could not get Classic to run w/o a memory error).

How slow? I had to wait about 10 or 12 seconds for System Preferences to start up and another 5 seconds per tab to click on. And the computer took around three minutes to start up!

Well, I am using OS 9 with the iMac right now and it loads a lot faster than OS X.
