[CUBE] iDVD w/ External DVD-RW Drive?

[Thubten Kunga]

ONE MORE TIME, Here's the HOW to make a DVR-105 work with a Cube and 
iDVD 3:

1. Pull the core.
2. Build a small 3 sided square of 2x4s just smaller than the core so 
it can sit on top of it with the cable side open.
3. Disconnect the optical power and IDE connectors from the internal 
optical drive.
4. You will see they are long enough to reach outside the Core and plug 
into the raw 105.
5. Reattach everything else and power up.
6. Forget about how it looks.
7. Leave it on the floor where it belongs in the first place. IMHO

Do that and you're iLife iDVD 3 compliant.
