| I want two optical drives IN !
Definitely ! I want a recorder and a reader. IN my G4, or my G5, or whatever you call it. Means that I want a third 5"1/4 bay. There's no meaning building design computers if we have to put external drives or anything else that could be in out. We need the third expansion bay. |

I'm gonna have to second that. When I installed a Yamaha CD burner in my G3 B&W, I had to either take out my zip drive or my other 20X CD-ROM drive. Well, I took out the CD drive, and it's just sitting in the Yamaha box now. I'd love to be able to have two CD's mounted on my desktop, even make a burned copy of the once CD directly. I know the SuperDrive is nice, but (internal) expansion is good too. Not too much form over function, now. |

I concur. I was origionally planning to put my existing DVD Rom drive in the G4 tower - then I found out it doesn't support a second optical drive. ![]() Because of this, I can't see DVD Movies when I get my mac - well, either that or fork out $100 extra cash... that probably would have gone towards RAM. Anyway, it's a major disspointment... although I can see why Apple would choose to do so - my sister has 2 CDRoms in her new compaq - a DVDRom reader and a CD-RW writer and I'm just waiting for her to confuse the two...

Wow, really? I know you can physically hookup two optical drives, but Apple prohibits this? Too bad. I'd like to have the capability, at least.
