no problem martin.
dvd is *very* unstable unlesss you belong to the  LucasArts Ltd Village 
in Hollywood and know the secret codes ;-).
hey didn't they invent the concept in the first place?

joking apart I think george is a very nice guy and would love to meet him.
i saw the "making of" of several star wars episodes while i was ill and 
goit to realise that lucas arts have really pushed the envelope for 
digital technology over the yaers that i have struggled with my 386, 
486, 586 's ...
hey they used/use unix, apple, sparc and linux
in not one screenshot did i see any other platform.
