I read the FAQ on changing custom user text, but the field doesn't appear in my edit options (or at least I can't find it). Is there a minimum number of posts required before you can change this? Thanks

Is there a button (besides the keyboard button) or a way on the Quicksilver that will open the CD-R? Is there a way to open the CD-R during the boot process? It is extremely annoying to have to boot into an OS to swap CDs. What's the matter with Apple that they have stopped putting a...
