YES!  The GS can control a CD ROM drive.  There's even a CD ROM remote NDA
on the 5.0.2 tools disk!  BUT, there's virtually nothing on CD for the GS
specifically.  You CAN use High-Sierrah CD's with it... That's why we have
the High-Sierrah (am I spelling that right?) FST, but, you can't really do
much with them (correct me if I'm wrong (I'm sure someone will:)).
