Because if I'm putting in or taking out a disk I have to go up to the
machine anyway, so I prefer pressing a physical button.  But I don't use
it much - I play dvd's on my normal dvd player.  The only thing I was
planning on using it for was to burn dvd's, but I find that easier to do
on my powerbook anyway.
