Ok, now I'm a little bit confused, because I was fairly certain that the super drive I have supports RW, but while looking at the specs on Apple's site, I can't find a single super drive that says RW. I'm also assuming that when it says Super Drive (DVD-R/CD-RW) it simply says that because that's the definition of a super drive. Let me do some research.Originally posted by tutubibi
I am not sure how heat could be a reason to disable DVD-RW.
DVD-RW is not supported on desktops too, so I would eliminate heat as a reason for lack of rewritables support.

Edit: I'm not sure that there are any desktops with a SuperDrive that don't support RW. Though you might not be able to do it through all Apple software (i.e. iDVD), I think all desktops can utilize an RW drive with a third part software app, such as toast.
It should be possible to determine what drive they use simply by checking the Apple System Profile.Originally posted by tutubibi
Anybody brave enough to take new Powerbook apart and report on make and model of "Superdrive" in Powerbooks?
