Apple Macbook Air SuperDrive (MB397G/A) Reviews
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Must-Have
Comment: Lightweight. no software to install. just plug in. Good price. If you have a Mac Air, can't do w/o but that's the price you pay for the convenience of a tiny portable laptop
Customer Rating:
Summary: Don't buy if offered by Datavision
Comment: I ordered this on Dec 5, with "expedited shipping" for $19. Four days later it is still in another city. Since I have experienced mixed success with my MBA's remote access, this is a necessary tool. Amazon's "free shipping" beats this company's "expedited" shipping half the time.

Summary: Light as air
Comment: I did not look for alternatives. Though this product is expensive, it is a lifestyle companion to Macbook Air.

Summary: not good at all...
Comment: Have you ever seen the clip from madtv about a bunch of people adoring Steve Jobs, and crying everytime he open his mouth? I'm that kind of people, I love Mac, fanatically. But in this case after been with the air and the 'superdrive' for some months now, really is not worth the price and effort. I have a multiple hub, and so I have no problem with the only usb provided. But everytime one of my students bring something in a cd, I have to disconnect everything, 'cause this thing only works directly attached to the macbook air. Besides about two weeks later the cable started to peel from the unit!.
If apple says I only do need one usb port I believe it. I can live without firewire. And maybe they are absolutely true about cds and dvds being obsolete when there are usb drives with 5gb in the size of a nail. But the thing with the superdrive is that is made to be annoying. Really does not solve any problem, itself is the problem. And at the end I'm going to buy a sony just for functionality. If you are thinking in it, skip it. Heresy on my behalf!!!!! forgive me Apple!!!!! aaggghhhhh -a thunder strikes!!!......-

Summary: Great device for the MacBook Air
Comment: I purchased this when I ordered my MacBook Air simply because I wanted the back-up security in case it was difficult to install programs through my iMac. I have used it consistently since that time and find it to be a perfectly adequate product. In fact, I would recommend it to anyone who purchases the MacBook Air. It is lightweight and almost as portable as the Air. Definitely recommended.

Editorial Review for Apple Macbook Air SuperDrive (MB397G/A):
Whether you're at the office or on the road with your MacBook Air, you can play and burn both CDs and DVDs with the MacBook Air SuperDrive. It's perfect when you want to watch a DVD movie, install software, create backup discs, and more. Only slightly bigger than a CD case, the MacBook Air SuperDrive slips easily into your travel bag when you hit the road and takes up little space on your desk or tray table when you're working. It connects to your MacBook Air with a single USB cable that's built into the SuperDrive. There's no separate power adapter, and it works whether your MacBook Air is plugged in or running on battery power.
