Hi Philippe I thought that too,..but I looked at the specs, and it comes with one SuperDrive with the option to add the second one as well. :o) (Same as the standard machine). But yes,..like your thinking. :) And nope sorry,..all the same ports. :o) 2x Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, Firewire, USB2, Sound in and out. Same ports on the front and back :)
Looked those up too. Was determined to check it all,... :o) But yes, you were thinking the same way as me.
