Hi.  you can buy a replacement hard drive and install it quite easily.
Depending on the speed and capacity of the drive, you could get one for less
than $50 US.

Subject: Re: A couple Macbook questions, out of curiosity

sorry, I don't know about the pricing.  I bought mine two years ago  
and am still very happy with it.  but there was a pretty good savings  
for not getting the super drive.  I'm sure someone on list here can  
tell you.  Just wish I had had the money to get a larger hard drive.   
only real regret.  well good luck, max
