Today, I googled for an hour how to open my CD player on my laptop. Turns out, there is none. They just put a space there to make it look like a CD player. FML

CD's have gone the way of the floppy disk! LONG LIVE THE USB!

I did the same thing, OP. It wasn't overly important to me when looking for a new laptop, so I didn't even think to check the specs.

If you haven't done much with the laptop you can still return it if it was a super recent purchase. Another option would be to buy an external optical drive. It takes up a usb slot but it may be worth it.

is it an Asus by any chance? Because I had the exact same problem.

That sucks. You could always just buy an external CD player for your laptop

Did you try putting the cd in the slot on my MacBook there is a slot where you just slide the disc in no way to open or close it

My laptop has the same exact thing. It's almost as bad as fake pockets

How do you buy a laptop without checking its specs before? I mean you could've actually bought a camouflaged potato and you wouldn't know... Next time just do a little reading or ask staff in the shop for more info. Or just find the full name - model of the device you own/want to buy and google it. :)
