Does it draw too much power? It's Apple's big Pro optical drive; why isn't it on the Pro laptop?
Actual conversation between UCLA and Stanford during a login on early Internet - U: I'm going to type an L! Did you get an L? S: I got one-one-four. L! U:Did you get the O? S: One-one-seven. U: <types G> S: The computer just crashed.

No I haven't. I haven;t yet had the oporutnity to take apart a Power Mac G4, which neither I nor any of my friends own, and gaze upon the rapture that is SuperDrive.

OMG, My Tibook is only 1" thick, do you know how thick a CD-ROM drive is? it's about 1.25" the DVD in my Tibook is only about .4 to .5 " thick. Right most of the PB owners just want a Combo drive! let alone a superdrive. Becides a PB 667 + super drive = close to 4000.00, if the ever minituzied it.
