I'd be very interested in whatever they tell you. IIRC, David Gatwood (head
honcho for MkLinux development) said he had no problems burning MkLinux ISO
images. He also had good things to say about Discribe software and
CharisMac support. I wonder what the difference is between MkL ISO images
and YDL ISO images?
I'm hoping next year's budget will allow for a CDRW, though I haven't
decided what to get (SCSI for my Mac/Linux box or IDE for my Windows/Linux
box). If for the Mac box, I've read tons about how the copy of Toast that
is usually bundled w/ CDRW's won't burn ISO images properly--you need Toast
Deluxe. And there's similar issues w/ the version of EZ CD Creator that's
bundled for the Windows folks.
Ain't computers fun? lol
