[MacDV] Re: iDVD & 3 movies

[Mark M. Florida]

Wow... cool, man!  :-)  I was wondering about that referencing movie -- 
great idea!  Did Apple bother to document this anywhere?  Do they ever? 
  Or do they leave these things for the people that write the books that 
Apple should have written in the first place?  ;-)

Thanks Erica.
