what Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 No optical drive, but a Superdrive accessory is available for $99. Also, software comes with the MacBook Air that allows you to "borrow" a Mac or PCs optical drive.

mattmatik Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Not sure we'll see a Mac Mini update today as he said there was four things to speak on. Shame, too, I'm set to buy one at first mention of it.

mattmatik Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Ok, I was wondering how one would install future OS X releases without optical drive! And 5 hours. That's longer than my MacBook.

Hurmoth Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Forget that... sorry Apple, but no thanks. If it had been under $1500, then I'd consider it, but not at $1800.
