(Note - I am posting this in the Notebooks forum, because it's specific to the macbook air... but I suppose the Moderator can move it if need be...)

My friend works as a techie, and he got in a MacBook Air for a client, and all the peripherals.. While he was loading in some software for it, using the external DVD specific to the Air, he noted that it vibrated so much, it almost fell off his desk, and he had to put a weight on top to keep it in one place. He said it had this problem with Apple's Install disk, and a number of other disks he had to use to install proper software for his end user...

Has anyone else noticed this problem?

Nope, mine works fine with low vibrations. Sounds like a defective drive.
