Yes I should have been more specific and stated external HD player/DVD burner.

It doesn't matter with any laptop dvd burner as they all seem to make coasters and brake down before too long. I've changed my mind and am not getting any slim internal or external Dvd burner for it. Below is what I'm getting for it: ...

I'm going to go with an external slimline Firewire/USB 2.0 NEC for my movie watching that is tray loaded. It should save on wear and tear of the notebook drive and take the worry away of getting one of my DVD-R's with labels stuck...
