Yes, once I found it eventually.
Doesn't come on.  There are two places I tried (I forget where).
One, pressing the "Turn it on" button did nothing.
The other, it said it couldn't find any bluetooth hardware.

Did that, no joy.  I had to reboot when I took it out of sleep mode and the
wireless keyboard and mouse would not work.

I can't actually see a CD icon anywhere to be able to drag it :(
What's an Apple key in PC keyboard speak?  My apple kb is wireless and
doesn't work ATM due to bluetooth not working :(

Couldn't find one but holding down F12 for a few seconds worked.

Also, when I insert a CD, I would expect an autoruntype thing - nothing :(
I think it can't find the cd drive as well as the network, bluetooth, and
anything else :(
