[X-Newbies] DVDs

[Birgit Rhoads]

If you have iDVD 5, it has broadened the choice for DVD's to more

If you have the older iDVD version, you should use DVD-R/DVD-Rw.

You must appear very intelligent; or maybe you were wearing your Apple 
t-shirt to give the guy ahead of you a clue that you use a Mac.
