    Actually a BR reader DVD+/-DL writer w/lightscribe in general, that will fit notebooks in general. For the m15x, I can't even find the specs to know what I need to look for. Aren't there 2 sizes of optical drives for notebooks?

    Anyway I want a BR reader in whatever model I get, but I also really want LS, and that doesn't seem to be available as an upgrade option anywhere. Wondering if I can just spec out a DL DVD burner and buy an aftermarket to pop in.
