Note that while a DVD drive is an option, it does not come with one
by default and it costs $225.00 extra. It took me 30 seconds to
find that machine. I'm sure there are more.
I think that is a poor example for this discussion since it doesn't
have a CD option at all. The link is to a laptop with no optical
media. The only media choice is a DVD burner.
