Hey guys, is there a way for me to set region codes on many machines at
once? Is there a plist file somewhere or something?

There's no way I know of to do it. It would be possible to write one but it's more complicated than a script. The current region of the DVD drive is stored in the drive itself rather than being a PRAM variable.

I always found this command intriguing and the man page frustrating... :)


There must be some way to use this... when you run strings on it, you can see that it knows about the authorization rights regarding the region setting.
