You can record with the camera, import the video into iMovie, then use iDVD to make a DVD out of it.

I don't know if you can record directly to a file using iMovie, but you should be able to record onto the camcorder's storage medium (DAT tape?), then import the video into iMovie and then, using iDVD, make a DVD out of it.

However: Not all PowerBooks came with SuperDrives for writing DVDs.
