Hi guys and girls, I am getting a Mac mini which doesn't have a DVD cd drove in it, I was wondering if i could use my monitor cd dvd drive to work on the mac.

Not sure what your monitor is. Any USB external drive should work to provide the DVD function.

On the other hand, if your "monitor" is actually an HDTV with an integrated DVD drive, than it will not connect to your computer.
