I’m completely cool with it. I just bought one of those little Acer “netbooks” and it doesn’t have a CD/DVD drive. I hope soon all software comes with an SD card option. Remember when everything came with a 5 1/4 and a 3 inch floppy for a while?

Same thing.

Heh. I haven’t used my optical drive on my notebook yet. I downloaded all my software that wasn’t included. OpenOffice, the GIMP, Chrome, Putty, VLC media player. I thought I’d miss MS Access (the included MS Office didn’t include Access), but I got use to MyPhpAdmin. And the only games I’ve bought have been on Wii.
