Hello, Charles,
Yes, that was what I was thinking about the drives. I think Mike will
eventually win the DVDs soon. You know that we could put a CD in a DVD drive,
yes, and it will work. Be aware that we have a few different types of CD and
DVD, so it is something you could discuss with Mike. I believe he will read my
and your messages hereon this list for himself to understand what is going on.
Thank you very much! Have a nice afternoon!
Todd
