I tried setting it up between my two 10.5.2 Macs (a MacBook Pro and a 24-inch iMac) and could not get it to work. So although you can share data on the CD/DVD, I'm not sure whether the sharing capabilities have actually increased for any computer other than the MacBook Air. If anyone has additional information about this, please do let us know. I couldn't find anything about it on the Apple Support site, which I checked prior to writing this piece.

Great up you have only a combo drive on an older laptop. Hi – in addition you can now share DVD/CD drive between all computers running 10.5.2.
