Hi, I remember some discussion a while back about the advantages and disadvantages of DVD players. My question concerns the DVD as an option for computer configs. The problem, as I recall, was whether or not regional standards would still make direct use of (European?) DVD disks a problem in the LRC. What was the upshot of that discussion? If I order an iMac with a DVD drive, will I be able to author programs based on imported DVD material as I currently do for laserdiscs? I would appreciate any suggestions/comments about this. Thanks!
