I need to be able to create a hybrid CD-ROM for use on Mac and 
Windows. Currently, we have a Pinnacle RCD-Burner, with which we can burn 
CD's from both Mac and PC.  However, I talked to a technical support 
person at Pinnacle, who informed me (after much himming and hawing) that 
Pinnacle doesn't support hybrid disks. 

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could address the following questions:

1.)  How *precisely* (I understand it conceptually) does a hybrid disk work?
2.)  What is the process for creating one?
3.)  What hardware and software products are available/necessary to 
     create one?

Thanks in advance,
