The latest info I've read says that E4 has redesigned the PCI card so for
SCSI PowerMacs it DVD and MPEG2 are all on one card. But, considering I
can get a decent DVD Video player for around $400, CoolDVD I've seen around
$450. DVD-ROMs are too scarse and a usuall there's a fight between the
three or four DVD-RAM standards. But, it does have an appeal.
