Installing YDL 2.3 on my iMac, or not

[Harvey Ussery]

You didn't mention which iMac you're using. But if it's the "latest and 
greatest"--the one with the 17" LCD--you're out of luck: YDL (and I'm 
assuming other flavors as well) hasn't caught up--the video card in the 
17" model is not yet supported. I found this out to my chagrin only 
after I had ordered the CD set for YDL 2.3.
