CD-R PC to Mac compatibility?

is it possible to burn a CD-R on PC that would work in a MAC?

I have Nero and you can make Hybrid CD-R's but it seems to
want to grab the Mac files from a Mac partition.

thanks if you can help!
 
a mac can read the CD, but the file names will be mess up. OSX i think reads them correctly. In OS 9 and under there is a extension avaliable for reading juliet file names (it works pretty good) but i cant remember the name of it...
 
Gee, I thought Apples and PCs were perfectly compatible, according to their site. 😛

There is a program ... forget what it's called ... CDEveryWhere or something. Could create multiformat ISOs.

Thats not really needed. And with OSX it pretty much is
 
so i can just burn a normal ISO and that a newer
mac Using OS X or above will be able to read the files?

Yes, it will. You don't need to do anything special or use any special program to read a CD burned on a PC with an Apple computer running OS X.

Some people here don't let an opportunity pass to voice their opinion on Macs when they generally don't know much about them.
 
i'd love to have one of those 17" PowerBooks...

beautiful 🙂

...now if i only had a spare 2,500 or so

(notice in the Topic i spelled Mac right!)
...not a complete moron 😉
