My new MacBook Pro is pretty sweet. It's blazing fast and almost half as thick as my old PowerBook. But when things get skinnier, other things get left out - like a CD drive. This computer has a SATA drive and not a disk drive like every other computer. So after buying a very expensive laptop, I had to buy a super drive in addition. Today was my first day using it. It just plugs into the USB drive and is super easy to use. It makes the laptop not as convenient though, say on an airplane, where space is limited and you would want to watch a movie.
