Are there any external cd-rom (not cd-rw) drives that will hook to my powerbook by usb or firwire? I've done several searches, but only found drives for pc's or did not have usb/firwire connection...

Yes, but you might have to make it.

Just purchase an external firewire case that fits a 5.25 inch drive and purchase an Apple compatible CD-ROM drive. Slap it together and there you go.... It will work but I don't guarantee that it would be bootable.

If it works with firewire, then I should be able to find a usb case and do the same thing??
