LSB, you are so silly. Of course Chromebooks can read DVD-ROMs, they just don't have them built in, so that they're not so large. You just have to buy an external one, and plug it in through the USB 3.0 port.

Although you do have to be careful which one you buy, I don't think all DVD readers work with Chromebooks. My solution to this has just been to use remote desktop with a desktop computer that has a DVD-ROM. You can't watch movies, but most computer programs work decently.
