er... i got a customer, who is buying the drive, cos he uses it lots. he will buy another one if this one dies outside the warranty.

if you need the drive, get it. if not, don't. the MBA Superdrive can be used almost anywhere, and it fits the whole "ultra-slim" concept we're driving at here.

I read somewhere that the MBA external drive only works for MBAs. Or am I wrong?

That is correct. It is designed and catered for mba

Anyway, for non-mba to use that external superdrive is not worth the money anymore. RM369 i think?

Just get any slim type external dvd writer. It is all nicely packed, they are NOT slot drive (tray) ,lightscribe enabled, and universal (works on both pc and mac).

I'll be going for the cheap and ugly solution when Bluray drives are more affordable in the future.

TS, have you considered Lacie external DVD writers? They are quite good looking if it is not a must to be portable.

Who is seeling Lacie Lightscribe Writer? I understand before MacAsia is the retailer, but Machines only sells Lacie External Drive only... hmm.gif

you can always order LaCie products, from any retail store that's already carrying LaCie products.

for example... http://maccity.com.my/acc/lacie.html smile.gif

I just checked the LaCie website, shows all the drives (except one) have the word LightScribe in it. the exception is the BluRay drive...
