[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1519339, member: 46727"] First, tell us what you're trying to do? If for example, do you wish to install Windows or Linux on your new iMac that has no built in optical drive? If that's what you want to do, then do not buy the Apple superdrive as it won't work to install Linux or Windows. You can install Windows or Linux by using a USB flash drive instead. Now, if you want to use the Apple superdrive to watch movies or play music, or even install programs that are on disk, it will work OK. [/QUOTE]
