Re: dvd drive on 770

     Hello,
     
     From the information I seen it is not a "given" that any DVD player 
     will play CDs or CD-Roms.  One piece of information I read recently is 
     that DVD uses a different color laser that cannot read CD-R disks.  
     DVD drives that can read CDs use two lasers (one for DVD, one for 
     regular CD).
