Other info:

 
Compatible with: Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows XP, Windows 2000 - Macintosh 9.1 and above, including OSX. DVD mastering software included (InstantCD/DVD fior Windows and Discribe for Mac). You must choose your operating system at time of checkout or we will be unable to ship software.
Special notes for Mac users: External version will work with all FireWire supporting Macintosh operating systems. Apple has announced support for the internal Pioneer A05 DVD-R/RW, which can now be installed in Macs running 10.2.2 (go here for info and update). Software: iDVD will not operate with any external DVD-R/RW currently available - because Apple supports only internal devices for use with this application. We suggest Studio Pro from Apple, and found the drive to work well with all other known DVD burning and authoring programs other than iDVD. All DVD-R/RW products shipped to Mac users include Discribe DVD/CD mastering software.
