There's no shortage of irony in this situation, certainly.
Apples: one of the articles I referenced indirectly indicates that there is actually Apple-specific Bad Stuff on these discs, but it appears that you may have to choose to run the software. (Whose brilliant idea was the autorun on Windows, anyway? Sounds like a security problem waiting to happen...)
Sony actually does make pretty decent camera/video equipment, IMO; my dad (an experienced amateur photographer) recommended them, and Megan and I spent a lot of time obsessively looking over specs and sample images and such. (The user interfaces on their cameras suck, I'll admit.) I'll bear in mind your recommendation for Nikon; thanks.
