I knew that price was too high!

I mentioned in the previous post that CompUSA, who I've been very pleased with, up to now, had charged me over $200 for a new CD drive for my laptop. The drive is still working fine, it just won't latch. So Gunner left me a comment about searching for the part online.

That was some good advice! I found through a minimum of Google searching, ZipZoomFly and they had my replacement CD/DVD drive. Its less than 70 bucks counting the overnight delivery!

I should have it by Tuesday in time to install before my trip. Or I'll install it at the picnic table one day. Either way, it will be a $180 savings in my pocket.

So, no thanks to CompUSA for this one and a big thanks to Gunner for the excellent advice.
