i put a netflix dvd into the new mbp and after a few sec, the osx ejects the disc....

i boot into windows 7 on the same mbp, put the same dvd in, and it plays fine.

wtf why is osx ejecting my dvd? how do get dvd movies to play on osx.

the more i use osx the more i hate it, spent more than an hr trying to setup my mail on osx and it keeps not working, turns out if you put an email address (instead of your actual name or blank)into the Name description field, the osx mail cant send out emails...another wtf. Thank god this guy figured it out 2 years ago, otherwise i would be stuck forever, who would thought you cant put email in a name description field. So much for apple user friendliness, what a load of crap.

I can't answer the netflix dvd problem but normal dvd's will just launch dvd player and you are good to go.

As for the mail problem. If you simply filled in the information asked for you wouldn't have been stuck at all.
