Well, believe me, I purchased an after-market DVD-R player and put it 
into a B&W G3. I didn't have to change a thing - it showed up with the 
same firmware version and looked exactly the same as the "special Apple 
firmware" drive that Apple puts into computers.

The problem is in the Cube firmware and it's interaction with the 
driver frameworks that Apple provides. I know about Patchburn and what 
it does is patch the driver, not the firmware on the drive.

If you want to find out more about this stuff, check the best source 
for the info, the Firmware Page at http://forum.rpc1.org/ rather than 
relying on second hand information.
