to which Robin Ashe <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> replied: >I've come across two places that sell them, one is out of Hong Kong, the >other is out of Germany. Both are incredibly expensive though. Expensive = ?? While a list price of ~US$400+ (my guess) might seem high now, back when these items were current that was an appropriate amount to spend to upgrade a recent 'Book. I imagine their prices reflect that (now outdated) economic. Since nowadays one could buy an entire Lombard w/CD drive, plus a replacement DVD/CD-RW combo drive mechanism for roughly similar money I can't see anyone selling too many at that price level. I'd bet anyhow they have no stock to sell. :-) URLs? I Googled but found naught.
