Hi, Thanks for your reply. I am still considering if I need superdrive since I would prefer to get 512mb ram combo drive with appleworks package. My choice is 80gb hd. My idea was to get external firewire dvd burner once they go down in price. My current machine would not be the best trade being upgraded 7100/80, unless they can take my original mac 128k :-)
