this laptop is not meant for people who are looking for all-in-one performance package. they're targeting people who browse the net all day, go to meetings, sit in the park, go on business trips, etc., etc. any of those people would tell you that they don't need an optical drive and that they don't remember the last time they used their ethernet port.

if you don't like it because it lacks peripherals and power, you clearly don't know what this laptop is for.
