Making ISO Disc For Macs?

Question

I use XP, and I was wondering--if I burn off an ISO disc for my Mac-using friend, will he be able to use it as normal? Or does Mac have some kind of different format? If so, would it be better to let him download the ISO and let him burn it off on his Mac? Thanks--

Answer 1

ISO is ISO regardless of the platform. All computers should be able to read it. Whether your friend can run any programs contained on it (if any) is another issue.

Be careful burning CDs and DVDs on Windows. AFAIK, Windows cannot burn an ISO image by default. You have to download special software to burn it properly. Otherwise, all you'll get is a data cd with one file on it called <yourfilename>.iso.

Search for "burn iso windows" (without the quotes) in your favorite search engine.
