Hi No! Enjoy your purchase, it sounds very nice. You can get either a USB CD Drive or an enclosure and fit an internal CD Rom. I purchased a portable CD Rom rewriter that's as small as a dual CD case. There are many options open to you. I don't know about the graphical capability so playing DVD's may be a problem. My desktop is less than that and it runs jaws easily enough. You might want to increase the RAM if you can. But as I said my desktop has less than that. The wireless sounds like it is one of the standard 802.11 types, so you'll be alright on that score too. Enjoyy it.

Hi All. In my impatience to purchase a laptop I have talked my long-suffering husband into purchasing from Ebay the following item for =A3190 with = =A320 postage. We have not yet paid as Brian is asking seller a couple of questions. Here are the specifics and my question is: does this mean it is wireless enabled to use anywhere and, assuming it doesn't have a CD drive which I didn't realise and which it seems not to have: can I buy any small drive to connect to this? Will it be a very slow laptop Should Window-Eyes work with this? ? It is certainly slim and very lightweight which is what I wanted.
