Cutting Edge computers on Adelaide St. S. always great prices. I bought 
a Double Layer burner (8.5 Gig) so that I can make easy copies of my 
HDs, or Movies, But a 4.7 Gig burner is quite a bit less expensive, for 
obvious reasons, and the blanks are much less too. Yes it will work 
with your G3, it's USB 2/Firewire, but backward compatible to USB 1, 
which is the Clamshell.

With an external burner, why do you need two? You may not need a newer 
version of Toast.
