PC laptops cost a little more than $50 to repair/replace DVD drives. Mostly due to the tight form factors and non-standard hardware. However for $1200 I can buy a pretty decent laptop or build a very nice desktop system.
If it was a desktop PC a brand new OEM DVD drive costs about $25 including shipping.
External USB DVD drives are about $40 including shipping and should be compatible with pretty much any computer. More hassle, but cheap.
Other than that I've got nothing. I don't think I've touched an Apple product in at least a decade.
