When I tried to insert a CD into the slot-loading SuperDrive on my 12" PowerBook, when partially inserted, instead of the mechanism pulling the disc it, it pushed the disc out. It has only happened one time since then, as it's been working as usual, but has that ever happened to your PowerBook? Can it be a sign that something is wrong with the drive?

Usually it happens to me if I insert the disc too close to the boot chime. It's the only time I've ever seen it happen on my slot-loading PowerBook drives.
