Hi guys and girls :-)

I have just purchased a compact flash card for my new camera that comes with some back up software for both mac and pc.

Please you tell me if i can put a mini cd into my Imac G5 slot drive?

Cheers

Wayne

Nope,

"Nonstandard size and shape discs

Discs of the following sizes and shapes work ONLY with drives that have a flat carrier tray such as certain Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) computers. The discs do NOT work with slot loading drives."

Here's a that on Apple's Support site. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58641
