Zan, Based on what you said, you appear to be full of vcrap. Anyone at anytime can and should make a copy of the install software to avoid using the original and keep it in good shape. There isn't any copy protection on Tiger and Apple even provides instruction on making a copy of it. You might want to go out and get a legitimate attitude. Lanny, Apple uses a lot of Pioneer DVD drives and I usually buy from Other World Computing so I know that it works without the detective work. I am in no way connected to my uncle Larry at Other World. www.macsales.com Roger On Sep 21, 2005, at 12:43 AM, Zane H.
