  • Need to Borrow: USB Disk Drive

    Hey guys, just got a new Dell for school, but i need to install Microsoft Word, unfortunately it doesnt have a disk drive. (to cut down on in class movie watching time and gaming), So does anyone on here have one of the Disk drives that connects via USB drive that i could borrow at the meet or for 10 minutes at another time?

    Do you have any other computers in your house with a drive? Right click it, share it, then browse to your computer via the laptop and run the install.
