Anyone know of a good notebook for dvd burning?

Hey guys! I thought I would ask the experts here before I made a purchase. I want to buy a new laptop. I want to get a decent one that has a dvd burner built in so I can back up dvd's from my home collection. But I have noticed many do not come with a dvd burner drive. Also I am nervous if they will be compatable with anydvd or dvdshrink. Does anyone know of any good notebooks or models I can check out? Would it be worth just geting any notebook then getting a external usb dvd writer? Are those compatable with anydvd and dvdshrink? Any help would be great!
