Yes, they would be useless on other systems - but you can still read
the files there.
But on BeOS the CD would have the icon I want it to have (although we
also could adopt the method Windows is using there), the windows would
open where I want them to with the correct size and all the attributes
visible, etc.
There *IS* an added value to such a CD, and I think you may agree with
that. I don't care if this added value would only come to play on some
systems.
Adios...
Axel.
