the problem is that I can see the opposite. Toshiba is the only HD DVD exclusive there. HP is dual. Fujitsu just dropped HD DVD. ASUS became dual. Acer is dual Gateway/Lenovo is BD, Apple is BD with no product out yet.

What I can see that this diagram is completely wrong, while the diagram that was made by BDA about which company support which is correct

bcos this chart is for q2 (bottom right).
but then in q2, does hd-dvd rom drive exist even yet ?

and if they don't show 'good' news, then this will be a 'case study' session to evaluate where they fail.

That is funny. They are claiming 62.7% share for HD DVD on notebooks?!

I'll bet their claim that they will put an HD DVD in every Toshiba notebook will turn out to be an HD DVD option for every notebook.

Toshiba used to be the #1 notebook maker. I don't think they can afford to price themselves out of the market even further by including an expensive component that most don't need or want, in every notebook.

q2 or not, this is well annoying. HP has BD drive in its PC and business notebook like before the end of q2. While acer released BD notebook like before 2007 (december 2006). somebody from BDA needs to correct this FUD.
