HowTo write ISO CD image to CD on Mac OS X

Many software products come today as ISO CD images. Prior to installation they need to be written to CD. On Mac OS X this is very simple. Steps are:

• Get and save the ISO CD image
• Insert an empty CR-ROM into the SuperDrive
• Start a Terminal (Programs/Utils/Terminal)
• Call `hdiutil burn isofile.iso``

hdiutil burns the file to the CD and compares the image file afterwards with the CD.
