Optical drive
Do any of the macbooks have an optical drive?
The non-retina 13" MacBook Pro is the only one left. Note that it is a MacBook Pro, not a MacBook. The Only MacBook is the 12" Retina MacBook.

Starting with the mid 2012 model Apple stopped putting optical drives in MacBook Pros
No, the Mid 2012 13" MacBook Pro is still being sold and it it does have a built in optical drive:
Interesting that this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro
does not list the 2013 MBP as having an optical drive Apple specs do
Well, I can't vouch for the accuracy of Wikipedia, but it's still being sold and is still being displayed in all of the Boston area
Apple stores.
However, from a technical standpoint, all of the other MacBook Pro choices offer superior performance, both video and cpu.
I note that you have to proceed to the buying page before it lists the optical drive, and the associated view gallery only shows the Retina model.
