I've spent quite awhile thinking about a powerbook, and with the new Cram and Jam deal, I can't see any reason to wait much longer. The only issue(s) I have is whether to go for the combo or superdrive, and whether or not I should upgrade to the 80gig harddrive. (I'm set on the 12" PB).
So, I'm basically asking for suggestions on whether people think I should spend extra dough on a DVD drive (to burn some DVDs - how many, I don't know as I've never had one before - but also as a backup system for photos and mp3s, both of which I have a LOT of) or if I should instead spend the money on a larger harddrive. (I'm moving from an ancient 30gig Windows machine that's almost entirely full.) Or, if I should just bite the bullet and get both. Any personal experience with an unneeded superdrive? Buyer's remorse with the combo?
