WOODSTOCK, Ill. (May 10, 2005) - Other World Computing (OWC) continues to
give consumers the speed and confidence they need to burn and read CDs and
DVDs by offering Mercury SuperDrives that not only are fast but are
Dantz/EMC-certified and supported for Dantz Retrospect backup.
"These drives read and write fast, and our customers can have every
confidence that their most critical audio, video, data - and now backup -
needs can be handled with this Retrospect certification," said Larry
O'Connor, president of OWC.
The OWC Mercury PBG4 internal SuperDrive offers burn speeds of up to 8X
DVD, 2.4X DVD Dual Layer and 24X CD. And, with the Dantz certification,
consumers can be confident it will be 100 percent compatible with Dantz
software and supported for burning music, data and video with nearly any
Apple/Mac DVD or CD authoring application.
For PowerBook G4 Titanium models that shipped with a CD-RW or better, and
any PowerBook G4 12-, 15- or 17-inch Aluminum model, bundles are available
that include the drive, Dantz Retrospect, NTI Dragonburn and 10 pieces of
8X DVD media for $169.95.
"People are busy. They don't want to wait hours for the latest family movie
to burn," O'Connor said. "This latest Mercury PBG4 DVD- and CD-burner
replaces the stock drive to burn fast without requiring anything extra to
carry around."
OWC sells a full line of internal and external SuperDrive solutions for
most Mac models, offering a top speed for DVD burning of up to 16X, from
