[CUBE] Yes, an actual working iDVD/external burner hack

[DSatterfield]

Greetings

I have a QPS DVD-R/RW drive that has always worked with OS9 & OS/X.  It
works with both the Cube & the iBook flawlessly.

George - I'm getting back to you!

LaCie DVD R/RW external drive has been playing DVDs just fine since 
plugged into FW connector after a LaCie 160GB FW HD. No special SW... 
just works! Cube/500MHz/30GB HD/1.5GB RAM/internal stock CD/DVD.
