That's the way ours has always worked, yes. To save space, Apple used a CD drive designed for notebook computers. Many notebook computers have drives that work the same way, they pop out a little, and you pull them the rest of the way to open. Also, you have a TRAY loading iMac, NOT a SLOT loading iMac. Remember how you said you pulled the "tray" out? Slot loading iMacs have NO TRAY at all, just a tiny slot in the front of the case that you push discs into, like how most car CD players work. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
