- Yes, and Yes, with some comments.
-
- CD Audio is only supported with MMPM/2 (as far as I can tell...this could be,
- and probably is, a requirement for all CDROMS, but I'm not sure).
-
- Also...be careful of how you use it, currently. If you don't have one yet,
- WAIT! Version 1.05 of the ROMS on the Texel (3024/5024) has a bug when
- there is concurrent access on the SCSI bus with other peripherals. This
- bug causes the system to hang. Version 1.07 and later (currently, not
- released) fix this problem and add multi-session capability. So, if you
- don't have one yet and are connecting one to a system that is already using
- SCSI devices or you want the multi-session upgrade, WAIT. If you do have
- one, call technical support and arrange to get the multi-session upgrade.
- That will fix your problem (if, in fact you have a problem).
-
- If you, or anybody, has any questions, just e-mail me...
