    Could you attach the macbook air's external usb superdrive to windows, and it work properly? Cause i need a portable dvd burner.

    I would like to know because, if it works, i might buy one.

    Thanks

    That drive only works with Macbook Airs.

    This would work with any computer.

    I don't think the connection is a USB it a special one, probably to prevent people using it for what you want to use it for.
