MacPro Dual Opitcal and Regions

[e.m.]

If I get 2 SuperDrives for the MacPro, would I be able to set one of them to region 1 and the other to region 2?

Also on a related note, if I decide to get an external firewire or USB DVD drive for my PowerBook, would I be able to set it to a different region from the PowerBook internal optical drive?

I think that you can only get drives for a region in that region, or I think there are some drives that are region free.

If you stick a Region-2 DVD in a Region-1 drive, it will usually ask you to set the drive to Region-2. However you can only reset them 3-4 times, before the final setting becomes 'permanent'.

So, you could buy two DVD drives, use one for reading Region-1 DVD's and the other for Region-2.

I've considered this, because we have Region 1 & 2 DVD's and finding a replacement multi-Region DVD player seems to be pretty expensive.
