- Well, I wanted to go the (hopefully) more compatible Mac CD emulation
- route, but this weekend I got empcd.device running, and it worked OK
- on one of my CDs, but wouldn't work with my new Star Trek Omnipedia
- disc...

- So I'm still interested in any advice anyone may have about using the
- "other" mode of getting CDs to work w/Shapeshifter.

- Thanks for the info!
