I am wondering if it is possible if I could burn Macintosh CD's on my PC. I have an iBook, and it would be nice if I could burn CD's for my iBook since I have a burner on my PC. And would rather not have to get a new one just to burn Mac CDs.

How do you burn an ISO formatd CD in Toast? The Que drive doesn't come w/ great documentation for Toast.

In the main Toast window, there is a pop-up menu just above and to the left of the area which says how much data yo uhave choosen to burn so far - in that pop-up menu are the formats you can burn. Choose ISO 9660, choose your data and burn. You can also choose the format from the menubar.
Take note that file names will get totally stuffed. If you want to have more reasonable file names (better than 8 chars or whatever) go to the data button, then one of the tabs up top and enable macintosh or joliet names.
The joliet option often stuff up for me, leaving the filenames as just long dashes.
If you drag a disk to the toast window, it will automatically go to Mac volume, so make sure its still in ISO before you burn.
You might want to do the first burn on a CD-RW then try that out incase something stuffs up - if its fine, then do the proper burn. Or even on CD-R's, if you burn and the filenames stuff up, just import that session and change the way the names work and re-burn - practically no extra space used.

The only choices I have are Files & Folders, Audio CD and CD Duplication. There doesn't seem to be any ISO 9660 option...

Thats real strange... is it Toast Deluxe or OEM?
Thats all I can think of except maybe its something with the burner itself...
Try reinstalling Toast... I don't know whether that will help at all, but its worth a try...

The "Files and Folders" option is the universal "Hybrid" format for Macs and PC's. I speak from experience.

So if I burn a CD w/ PC files using the files and folders method, will a PC be able to read them? I don't have to set any prefs or anything else?

Right. I'm listening to some MP3's I burned last night, on my office PC. I used the "Files and Folders" option.
