If you've shopped for a laptop within the past few years, you probably noticed a severe lack of laptops with built-in CD/DVD drives. That's all thanks to declining physical media use and a growing desire for thin, lightweight laptops.
While Apple's last laptop with a built-in drive was the mid-2012 MacBook Pro (non-Retina Display), it has continued to ship a product for MacBook owners who still need a CD/DVD drive: the Apple SuperDrive.
