[QUOTE="technologist, post: 43903, member: 4134"] The SuperDrive's sole purpose is to burn DVDs. The Combo drive reads and burns CDs, and reads DVDs; the SuperDrive adds the ability to burn DVDs. This is only important if you: - Frequently have to move/share/back up large (up to 4GB+) files. - Want to exchange home movies with friends/family who have DVD players or - Engage in DVD piracy I personally almost never use the DVD burning capability of my SuperDrive. The backlit keyboard cannot be added after purchase...your PowerBook either has it from the factory, or it doesn't. (Unless you don't mind drilling a few holes and putting in your own lights!)
