I have a Gateway NV52 and I checked with Gateway and I was told that it will support an internal BluRay player. I need sources for this as I am unsure as to a good vendor for one. Also, is this a fairly easy thing to do? Do I just remove that back of the laptop and swap? I have bookmarked the page about Playing Blu-Ray and HD DVD Video;
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Restr ... ayAndHDDVD but any other input is welcome.
Thanks!

AFAICT it's just a matter of removing the lock screw, taking out the drive and inserting the new one. However I read that this model has a max screen resolution that is too low to display full HD, so unless you are planning to use an external monitor, why bother?
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

Well, the DVD player in it now gives a soft focus to everything. My progressive scan on my CRT TV at home gives a crisper picture. Thus, my thinking is that it would have to provide a better picture that what I get now. Additionally, my laptop has an HDMI out, so if I wanted to, I could use it for an HD TV, etc.
