2 If you have proof of a slot-loading BRD that is at a reasonable price-point then point it out to us. If you have proof of a 5mm slot-loading BRD even exists then point it out to us. 3 You dont have a clue what you are talking about. The Z-series start at 1800 without a BRD. You have to pay 20 99 for a 13 notebook before you even have and option for the BRD, which will cost you an additional 5 4 The Z-series thickness is 0 at the front to That is 33% thicker than a MBP and considerably more volume over a MBs current case. Again, exactly where would this fit in a MB or MBP that currently takes a 5mm drive? Do you think Apple is going to thicken its cases and move to a tray-loading drive just to accommodate a few foolish people? 5 Its been stated several times now, the Z-series does not use a slot loading drive, yet it still costs 500 and is twice the thickness of the MBs optical drive. Are the words slot and tray really that difficult to comprehend? PS: This is usually where someone responds with a lame comment that puts Apple on a pedestal and claims that Apple can have these non-existent 3rd-party drives and a much lower pricepoint than larger, cheaper drives simply because they are Apple. 2 If you have proof of a slot-loading BRD that is at a reasonable price-point then point it out to us. 4 The Z-series thickness is 0 at the front to That is 33% thicker than a MBP and considerably more volume over a MBs current just to accommodate a few foolish people? 1 Its not the quality of the downloads that is the problem for most people, its the connection speed or rather the lack thereof and downloads caps. 2 Maybe theyll get cheaper soon? Like CD and DVD drives did. 4 Maybe theyll get thinner soon? Like CD and DVD drives did. 2 If you have proof of a slot-loading BRD that is at a reasonable price-point then point it out to us.

Are the words slot and tray really that difficult to comprehend? So whats your point? I never said any thing about a slot loading drive. I just said that Sony is able to fit a blu-ray drive in a slim light weight laptop at a price point that is similar to the current MBPs and MBA. If you havent noticed everyone is talking re-design this time around for the MBP. How do you know that Apple wont taper the laptop similar to Vaio Z or the MBA and move away from slot-loading drives. Slot loading drives are a pain in the a% anyway. 1 Its not the quality of the downloads that is the problem for most people, its the connection speed or rather the lack thereof and downloads caps. I know this is an issue in countries like Australia, but in the US its just starting become an issue.
