For the majority of ISO's circulating yes... some imports and older ISO's will often require a boot disk (Utopia).

Depending on how the ISO was created. You may or may not need the Utopia boot disk.

If you look on the bottom of a DC there's a number in a circle. This number will tell you which DC you have. The number is either a '1' or a '2'.  Sadly I can't remember which is which. Probably a google search will turn that info up for you. If I think about it, I'll look on the bottom of mine and let you know, mine is the one that will boot CDRs without a boot disk. I'm pretty sure the one with a '1' on the bottom is the one you want.

You will need to burn CD-R's to use in a DC. To use CD-RW's you will have to adjust your laser.
