    Bluray Drive play DVD's?

    So I am looking at getting a new laptop in a few weeks when i pull in from deployment. I am looking at getting a laptop that can run games and I would go with a desktop but I am to mobile to really enjoy a desktop.

    What I noticed is most laptops I look at that hit what I want has a bluray drive which I know there is no current video support for it but will the disc drive still work for Ubuntu 10.04 for DVD' and Cd's even though it is bluray? Thanks for any support.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
