Re: USB DVD Player.....

actually, any laptop DVD drive in an enclosure will work. look on ebay for an external slim DVD:

here is a link to just the enclosure - http://cgi.ebay.com/Laptop-CD-DVD-Ro...QQcmdZViewItem

hope that helps.

just don't put my name on it when IT gets HR to TE b/c of PV

that might be a safer way to go. also, you could encode the movies and dump them to a flash drive or CD, then you would not need the DVD drive.
