You can use this disk to install the program on another computer, or have a backup installation disk in case you need to reinstall the program in the future. You can use a Mac to burn an *.iso file to a disk, and the resulting installation disk will run properly on a Windows computer.

About Recordable Media Types
There are two types of recordable CDs and DVDs: CDs and DVDs labeled 'R' can only be recorded on once, while those labeled 'RW' allow you to write data to them once and then add more files later. You can also erase the data on CD-RW or DVD-RW disks entirely and re-use them, which you can't do with DVD/CD-Rs. You can use either kind in IT Computer Classrooms.
For dmg or *.iso files that are larger than 4.7 GB, you will need to use dual layer DVD.
