Hi,
I need some help in finding an external DVD burner for my Macbook 1.83GHz. I heard that iDVD doesn’t work with a lot of burners.
Also, I’m, looking for one under $100.

Thanks

any of the LaCie burners should work fine.

I have an LG 2166D on my G4 PowerMac... Haven't had a problem with it whatsoever. I use it on both my Macs as my Powerbook only has a combo driver, and not a super drive.

Here's a review

I've had big problems with my external plextor dvd/rw. My ibook doesn't see it whether its connected through usb or firewire and my dads g4 seems to just 'lose' it from time to time My Pc's are fine with it though...
