You sure can. You can put any data you like on a CD. You'll need some blank CDs and a CD writer.

If the laptop is new enough to have a CD burner then you can burn the files to CD. If it's just a CD player but the laptop has USB ports you can use an external USB CD Burner to burn the files to CD. Or as an alternative check your local computer or office supply store like Staples and see if they have a cheap USB RAM drive to move the files to. I recently got 3 1GB drives from Staples for around $30.

Should be no problem as long as your laptop has a CDR or CDRW drive and the blank cd's are of the same format.

you can do this; you need a cd burner and blank cd; cd burner also needs software to enable it to do the burn unless your operating system has a burner built in (XP does)
