Does what it needs to do!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most laptops these days save space and money by not being equipped with an optical drive, something we needed as we still have a few programs on CD. This was an easy, inexpensive solution, rather than paying much more for a laptop that has it built in.
