| As long as Blu-ray supporters are able to purchase the movies they want to see in Blu-ray, I am not entirely sure how much they'll care about how HD DVD is doing. I was chatting with a friend this morning who is adamant all the pressure is on Blu-ray to deal HD DVD the killing blow as soon as possible. Wait. What? IMO HD DVD has to crawl out of the basement and become a contender, or it will die. |

| I would generally agree... the writing is on the wall for HD-DVD, but it could still linger around instead of dieing off anytime in the near future, unfortunately. |

| PS30 60gb installed and configured, bought a few BR movies, waiting for them to arrive. Tested PS2 games I have (GT4 & Singstar) and it works as intended, so PS2 is out of the door, as soon as I've transferred my savegames hooked up to HDMI 42" Panasonic Plasma, although I can run at 1080i, found results to be better at 720p. Now it's time to test that DVD upscaling hardware engine to see what it's worth, playing same movie on both XBOX1 hooked up to Component and PS3 through HDMI, both do upscaling, which one is better? I'll soon find out

| difference between DVD "normal" and fully upscaled to 720p is noticeable, it's for the better
