    Probably a bit specialised for on here. I assume you've still got one of these because you like the look, but in reality it's a 10+ year old machine.

    Your best bet on a DVD drive would be to go external I'd think. Try trawling the forums on macrumors.com or similar sites if you want to find someone who's tried it or done it.
