    Most PC packages or rather the most basic computer packages today comes with a DVD player. I think the normal CD player has been outlived 2-3yrs back.

    I'm not very fond of mini PCs. They may look good, but they perform absolutely poor in the benchmark tests. You wouldn't wanna play Unreal Tournament with those

    Dual Intel Xeon 3.06GHz Overclocked to 3.7GHz
    2GB of DDR2 RAM
    Twin 200GB RAID HDDs
    DVD +/- RW, DVD-RAM Combination Drive
    DVD-ROM / CD-RW
    ATi FireGL / NVIDIA PNY Quadro FX 2000 with 128 MB of DDR2 RAM
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2 Platinum eX
    Creative Inspire 6700 6.1 Speakers
    19" Samsung 191T Super IPS TFT Monitor
    Intel Gigabit Ethernet
    FireWire and USB 2.0
    RAID Level 5, SCSI, IDE and EIDE Controllers.
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional (with SP-1 & 2), Office XP Small Business Edition (with SP-1 & 2) and Visual Studio .NET 2003 Enterprise Architect Edition.

    Actually you would fit a CD drive in there, just take out the DVD-Rom, and put in a combo drive.........
