Intel iMac's drive not ejecting disks

Well I assume I will just have to go to the Apple Store... again... to get a repair on my new mac... again...

My Intel 2.0Ghz iMac will 4/5 times not eject the disk when you tell it to. It tries, struggles, and then just accepts that it's in there. It is a huge pain because it wants to read/mount the disk again before I can make an attempt to ejecting it again. Very time consuming.

Who makes these damn things? Every iMac I have owned has had trouble with the drive.

Just thought I would share this, as I assume no one has any type of DIY fix.
