Taking my MacBook to the Genius Bar today
It's the only way I can get the SuperDrive issue fixed.

I guess they physically have to reapair it or replace it.

Hope it won't cost too much $$.

1. Good News/Bad News
Good News: It's still under warranty and won't cost me anything. :-)

Bad News: It's gonna take them a week to fix. They have to replace the Superdrive. My iPod will discharge in that time. :-(

Good News: I still have my desktop and can still get to DU. :-)

2. Well, the FREE repair is certainly good news!
Bummer that they have to replace it, though. :(

3. Yes, it is!
I was really bummed. I felt stupid. Everything else, I check everything when I first get it. But I never checked the disc drive until a week or so ago when I wanted to start adding my CDs to my iPod collection.

:dunce:

I'm getting the feeling that this is a large problem. Because the Genius Bar tech didn't bat an eye when I brought it in. It'll take them about 3-5 days though. I hope to get it back by the end of the week. Then I can start burning CDs. Yay!
