Superdrive Firmware Update

An unsuported Superdrive firmware upgrade for PowerBook G4s is available from http://superdrive.cynikal.net/. I installed it on my 12" PowerBook G4 with excellent results.

After the upgrade I'm now able to burn CDs at 16x and DVD-R media at 2x. I was able to burn a Memorex DVD-R that had previously failed with the old firmware. I haven't noticed any more heat, although my powerbook always gets extremely hot when burning a CD.
