Now, if Google comes through, I can get some reviews on drives, look into getting "Studio 7" by Pinnacle Software, and have a go at it... OR I could just be smart right off the bat and get a G4 iMac with the SuperDrive already built in.

Little story: I burnt a CD for my sister with some pictures on it for her to get them to the computer lab where she is doing her Graphic Design course (they're Macs and we both have PCs). The concept that "once it's written, that's it!" took some explaining. Multi-session to the rescue? Well, yes, except that you have to make the first session multi-session, too. D'oh! She discovered the Macs also have Zip drives so I unearthed a Zip disk for her. This also gives her the advantage that she can bring work home. Wade.

Maybe a demo of how you could create a DVD in ten minutes might help to sway opinion. Rock up there with some footage on the camera and they'd probably let you do it on the spot.
