Comment on New MacBook Pro seriesparent

That they kept the optical drives wasn't a surprise. For most of us (power-users) — who download software and/or use disk images — it's not a necessity, but a lot of regular Joe's still burn CD's/DVD's.

I've had a lot of people look at a MacBook Air and then ask me "where's the DVD drive?".

Apple could easily leverage this to their advantage by selling an optional external drive and marketing it appropriately.

Or they could design the bay to accommodate an optional battery that would be factory installed.
