I also thought of that, that's why I haven't trashed the firmware. But I'm reserving that idea for a few reasons:

1. You take your chances using hacked firmware, there are no garantees.

2. Less wear and tear on the burner if my idea of using extension cords for the ROM drive works.

3. All my close friends are Mac users, although I will be visiting my brother up north in a couple of months. He uses Windows PC. I could flash it then if I can't get the ROM drive extension cord idea to work.

In the meantime I would really like to know if there is any reason why I should not use extension chords.
