I just recieved my new 15 inch powerbook in the mail and was absolutely falling in love with it...that is until I put media in the combo drive. All of a sudden when trying to read the disk I heard some really loud grinding noises. This drive is making sounds that I did not think were mechanically possible. The discs read however they are insanely slow. I was trying to install an app with it and it took an insane amount of time. I know the machine isnt slow its the 1.5 ghz with 1gb ram and was set to highest performance. I tried a bunch of cd's and dvd's and the sounds that were produced left me speachless. I mean a dead pixel I can understand but this just blows! I guess I have to take it into a retails store. Do I call anyone first or should this be my first course of action? Any suggestions or advice based on a similar situation would be appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Evan
