Sometimes owning an Apple gives you that great feeling of reaching into the pocket of a jacket you haven't worn all season and finding a fistful of cash. Here's just one example - this article explains how Apple is adding support for DVD+R and DVD+RW into the Macintosh operating system with Panther, the new version of Mac OS X that ships next week. Normally support for a new type of format would mean having to buy a new drive, but I just checked my new G5's System Profiler to find that Apple shipped the G5 with a Sony DW-U10A internal drive, which just happens to be the FIRST combination drive which supports DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD-RW and DVD-R formats. So voila! Instant upgrade. Yet another reason to love Apple.
