As far as seeing if you can do region 4, it depends on your DVD-ROM.  Have 
a look here for utilities to unlock your drive:

Gotta love the RIAA for their antics in getting region coding as a standard 
(its actually not aimed at piracy but more at price fixing).  The RIAA is 
about as evil an entity in the US as I can think of.  You would not 
*believe* what they tried to slip into the recent anti-terrorism bill in 
congress.  Have a look here:

They tried to slip in an amendment that would allow them to legally hack 
into anyone's computer to search for and destroy illegal recordings *and* 
hold themselves blameless for any coincidental damage.  Talk about 
Orwellian - 1984 here we come.  Luckily it did not make it in.

A LMOC: Man all these reports are driving me nuts!  The guys just need to 
skip over to Atlanta quick to get going on this part of the tour! ;-))
