After the con, I took out the laptop and the instructions and the replacement DVD drive and made the swap in 10 minutes. Had to trim the bezel so the drive door would close, but other than that it was an easy repair. The system recognized the new hardware, and unlike the piece-o-crap drive which came with the Gateway, this time it assigned a DMA channel and played commercial DVDs without skipping.
