ROM module....if so what does it cost and where do I get them? On the internet what looks like it may fit the bill, ranges from about $30 -$300 so they can't be the same functions....I ONLY want it to play regular dvd movies...it does not have to burn or copy dvd's etc..what is the name of the device i am looking for.is it a DVD Rom Module ?..I have gotten many conflicting answers so I guess I am not phrasing the question properly..any suggestion on models...and some l haves seen have specs of 8X or 16X etc....is there a minimum I need to play a dvd ..thanks

should work fine
but priced enormously high at $ 140
conects thro usb 2.0, but also compliant with the usb 1.1 in your c400 latitude
this may cause marginal lag as data transfer speeds of usb 1.1 are much lower than the usb 2.0 of today !
lemme check if something more reasonably priced ....
ok, $ 74 ... but lots of info on page

The USB 2.0 Advantage
USB 1.1 was great, but USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port.

Every cell has DNA and it is consisted of two strands tightly woven around each other. The thing that prevents the two strands from breaking apart is called a telomeric cap (which is random nucleotide sequences called nonsense codons. Codon is a 3 sequence of nucleotides that codes for amino acids eg. CUU is a amino acid called proline . A nonsense codon is one that doesnt code for any amino acid production) Every time your cells divide a small sequence is lost there by reducing the stability of the cell's DNA (in layman's terms). This will eventually lead do most of Ur cells' DNA becoming unstable. And usually when a mistake occurs in DNA the cell will perform auto cytolysis (cell suicide) to prevent problems. So when you are old most of ur cells telomeric caps will be low and they are prone to die when they try to divide.. Whats really interesting about this theory is the impact it has on evolution (because this happens on both meiotic as well as mitotic divisions. which means that a species grows old too before it mutates.. but thats a different story)
