They're not the only ones on the market and certainly this wouldn't have any bearing on CD drives. Not only that, not everyone runs on Intel chips. Last computer I had still had an internal drive, and I built the whole thing from scratch. Intel making changes to their CPU doesn't affect CD drives, a completely different piece of hardware, let alone hardware that has no bearing on CPUs whatsoever. If that were even remotely true, no external drives would be on the market, let alone the fact I'm using one right now to work.

That is unless you believe that my cousin bought a external DVD drive from a piece of sh*t brand for his laptop that his CD-ROM copy of Mafia ! cannot be read, then I really rest my case. My cousin REALLY tried installing Mafia I on his recent gaming laptop from his CDs using a external DVD drive and it didn't really work, he was forced to re-buy it on Steam.

What I really said is that computers are ditching internal drives due to Intel making changes to how their CPUs will work in the future, you said the opposite with your nonsense and make it look like I'm illogical!Īlso, you saying that it has nothing to do with drives when it comes old disc games like Mafia I on CDs might be utter bullsh*t. Microsoft made changes to their OSs which caused the DRM to lock out on any machine running that OS to run the discs. It has nothing to do with the drives themselves. This isn't even logically true, nor is it the reasoning.
