You know the answer, even if you are hoping it will be otherwise.. :-)
the 365XD is not designed for native DVD..
there MAY be sonme PCMCIA based soft DVD that the P100 (is that not what
cpu it has?!) can run, but while i have a vague recollection of seeing
some such thing advertised, it has been a few months (a lifetime in this
business) and i can't recall any more than that..
note: the 365XD was the pentium version of the 365ED which had a cyrix
or some such cpu..
they were made in taiwan by, most likely, acer, at least 3 years ago...
(3 years is an epoch, a light year of development, prehistoric, 760ED
was hot stuff then!)
