@megalodonNL You should buy external USB optical drives in this case. Or you can install the game via CD/DVD image.

@TheHandiQuack Yes, something in the direction I thought to myself, but my brother has sworn that it was English by a Frenchman, so I asked.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I understand how to do it with the help of another system, but I think I’d rather have a bigger model with dvd drive, like the Asus K53BY-SX018V.

@megalodonNL you can use an external drive or emulate the image disk on another computer and then get it on with an USB stick or an external hard-drive.

No dvd drives on these netbooks? So installing a game, or ANYTHING from DVD is simply not possible?

@pogularocky technically, It’s not really manufactured by Asus as Asus no longer has any factories from what I know and most of their devices are now made by Pegatron. As for a thinner Asus, see UX21 .

@GarbageState Mac Air is manufactured by ASUS. Apple does not manufacture any of its hardware. They contract it out, mostly to Asus and its subsidiary companies in China and Taiwan.

@jasonlehman probably not. i see only european or asian versions on youtube. those have 3.0. NAM specs on excaliberpc site don’t list 3.0.
i tried holding macbook air. this battery design is not intended to be a grip. this is not a camera. it does not help lol
if mac can make air, asus can shave .3-.5″ off of this design at same cost. VGA has to go.

Is that the U.S. version? Wasn’t sure if U.S. version included USB 3.0 or not.
