    hey so i want to buy a dvd burner and install it on my prostar 4034 lap top, when i called them they said i needed to buy it from them and it was $160!!! because it was a clevo laptop and no other dvd burner would fit in it.... is this true?! if not where can i buy one for a reasonable price?
    are there other brands i can buy?
    basically what all do i need to know about the dvd burner before i buy it to ensure it will fit my laptop?
    thanks guys
    this is my first post here at notebookreview.com thanks in advance!
