    This probably isn't much help, but if you have a PC without a burner handy, it IS possible to convert an ISO into a DMG. So if you can transfer the ISO to a PC over the network and then tranfer the DMG back, it would work. Unfortunately, the name of the program that can do the conversion eludes me, but it's either free or trialware. The interface has a bar on the left, and the main part of the program (on the right) is split into 2 parts, top and bottom. One is to browse the PC files and the other to browse the Mac files. And one of the menu items (not buttons) is to convert from one to another. So that's that from me. I think it'd be easier to just find a friend with a PC and a burner though..

    Here is what you do, I think. This could be wrong, but I believe it will work. It is deffinitely worth trying. Go to your Applications folder, ope the Utilities folder, and then open Disk Utility. Once open, next to File and Edit is Images. Click it, then click Burn. Navigate to your file and there you go! I think that will do what you want. If I have a chance I will try it later, but that will work, I am pretty sure.

    LOL

    Ok, Cashmonee is the close, the only thing hes wrong on is his doubt.

    the Disk utility is Apples Burning application, as well as its partition manager for OS X. Don't waste money on third party, Apples own software works best on their OS.
