my first "review" in which I ranted about not being able to restart OS X after watching a movie on the DVD (ti PB G4) did not get on here. Well, I was a bit hot about not having a clue what to do about it, but the OS X icon has appeared in the system disks window where I need it to be able to switch back and forth to OS 9, I hope at any rate,

pain was understandable given that there was no OS X icon to click in the system disks last night. but, miraculously, it has appeared where I need it. I don't mind having to go back and forth to OS 9 for while, I have a Windows emulator on there so that i can travel with this notebook and get some work done on windows only software. sincerely aw shucks boydog

this updater. It gives me the message that "The Drive is Unable to be Updated"... which of course is not an error cited in the troubleshooting readme. Grr.
