Seems kind of wasteful to buy an external DVD drive that will only likely ever be used once for this one case.
Is a $60 superdrive really worth more than just hopping on the phone?

- angersock 14y agoThe author is beyond hope, and has willingly hobbled himself despite knowing that this could be an issue. I don't think mere things like reason, logic, or prior planning enter into this.
- UnoriginalGuy 14y agoIt won't be used just this once though, there are tons of things still on DVD/CD. He even mentions in the article he wife needed one to install Microsoft Word. Plus a "superdrive" is just an over-priced Apple branded version of a generic USB DVD-RW/CD caddy. The Apple one is £61, the Samsung one is £25. Anyone who buys a "superdrive" is a huge sucker.
- jodrellblank 14y agoHe even mentions in the article he wife needed one to install Microsoft Word. Nope. That was a core of his argument - Microsoft did let her download Word, taking the DVD license key as evidence, so why wouldn't Adobe do the same?
