Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Does the Air have a CD or DVD drive? It doesn't look like it, from the specs.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Does the Air have a CD or DVD drive?
No.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
That's what I keep telling myself.
Good advice!

Eh. They lost me, then. Which I guess is good, because maybe the prices on the fat laptops will go down.

I am not allowed to click on the Apple Store.

They have an external CD drive for $99, and they also have a new bit of software called Remote Drive which allows you to use the CD or DVD drive on another machine across the network, even a drive in a PC.

I saw that; I just know my habits too well, and if there's a second "piece," so to speak, for my laptop, odds are astronomically high that I'll leave the external CD drive at home on the day that I need it most.
It's better if my laptop has everything in one piece.
It's not the hardware; it's me and my forgetful ways.

That's the beauty of Remote Disk. If there is another computer with an optical drive in the area, you can use it as the optical drive for the MacBook Air. You aren't screwed if you forget the external.
