can we get a cat for optical drives?
it would be nice to trade secrets on firmwares and stuff.
or would that be bending any rules?

Well, we went through this before, and it was pretty much decided that this could push things a little too far.

True, but that was before all the changes, so "watch this space" and things may change wink

I think definetely not appropriate and mods might have missed this
All though discussions such as that are not clearly outlined in the rules, but anything related may not be allowed here.
don't want to start any kind of debate so I will link to this and you shall draw your own conclusions.

ok, i looked hard at this line...

"any other material that may violate any applicable laws"

still not sure, but if you put the word "may" in there, you can pretty much rule out a lot of stuff that can be talked about.

in lieu of that, though, if you have a hdd section, and a graphics card section, i still don't understand why there is no cd/dvd drive section.

where is the hdd section and cd/dvd section?

I think all this falls under tech support
