That's my problem, anyway...... 
Maybe people want a slow opener, so that they can see it still spinnin and still have time to duck before the disk is flung at them at a few thousand RPMs, cutting their head cleanly from their body.

Disk brakes? Dammit, I knew I forgot something when I drew up the blueprints for my CD-ROM.
Gotta go make a phone call, be right back.

hahahahahaha
i remember my old parallel zip drive (100mb)
i had it sitting atop my old minitower which itself sits on the desk beside my monitor.
that evil bastard of a drive ejected the media so damn fast the zipdisk once came out, skiped on the top edge of the case and smacked me on the noggin as i reached accross to get something. 
the number of times it ejected a zipdisk on a ballistic trajectory to the floor i couldnt count. damn lucky the 100meg disks were robust!
