You may have slightly worse than my experience. I had my battery die after about a year (replaced it with a BTI), and my DVD/CDROM drive also died (Before that, but not sure why). Got it replaced (just barely under warranty, also the LG, and got another LG as a replacement. I'm coming up on 2 years in Feb. 2003, and the replacement drive has been working fine - though sure, I would've liked it better to have received the Matshita... How about other things that might make the drive go bad for Ryan (I know, besides apparently poor design/construction)?? Anyone? Jim Rohde -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
