[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1344149, member: 59143"] This. However, if the chassis slims down and decreases the flow of air, then it could cause more temperature issues. Not to mention fans dying more quickly. As for the rest of it, if you guys really want the price to come down, then you shouldn't be against leaving out the optical drive. That's almost $100 right there. You want an optical drive? Get the external. Pretty simple logic. Need more USB ports? Hubs are super cheap, and that will kill two birds with one stone. In fact, Moshi makes an awesome 4 port hub with an multi-card reader. Can't beat that. HDMI is great and all, but I don't see the issue with using an adapter for maximum compatibility. Too expensive for the amount if drive space offered. Better yet, offer an option for no disk drive at all, and let the user install their own.. lol *dreams and wishes* In reality though, an option could be offered to remove the optical drive and replace it with an SSD for the operating system. That would be great. Doug [/QUOTE]
