    Bought one @ Wallyworld As a Second computer for the house - Wondering if I can have the Combo optical drive -DVD-rom/CDR Burner replaced With A laptop DVD burner ? NEC makes or made one & Newegg used to sell them but the model # Eludes me right now ? I know it is upgradable otherwise - up to 2GB's of memory & possibly a faster proocessor & bigger hard drive ! but I'm uncertain on the optical end ? I have a SSpare Nec Nd-2500A that I made into a External Drive-but it's kinda big to be Schlepping around with a notebook ! & would rather go internal with the proper drive if possible ? Also if anyone has experience with cases for carrying laptops would appreciate your input ! Thanks again CIAO!!!!

    Jerry746- Thanks but I think I'll keep checking newegg ! The NEC laptop Drive they used to sell was about 60 or 70 dollars or so . More in my budget ! But thanks again for the help!
