My Powerpoint Presentation was about Blu-ray! - Blu-ray Forum

Batman00 · 01-25-2008, 09:43 PM

In my History class at College we had to do a PowerPoint on anything, So i chose Blu-ray, and a majority did not know what it was, so it was a two minute presentation that i did for 10 minutes because 2 minutes was not gonna cut it. I spoke about the format war, the protective coating and High Definition in general.

I told them basically their HD-DVD players were paperweights

Thats great! What did your class say after the presentation?

kpkelley · 01-25-2008, 09:46 PM

Since it's a History class shouldn't you have done it on HD-DVD.

Can you post your ppt file somewhere and share a link to it? I'd like to see it.

They applauded, and i got like 4 questions. Do you have a HD DVD player? No, Do i have a Blu-ray player? PS3, Would i have to buy a Bluray player to play Blu-rays? DUH! Is the price going to go down? Yes, eventually because Blu-ray lasers are cheaper and eventually players will be cheaper and so will disks too (hopefully)

You need to zip the .ppt file in order to post on the board. You can post zip files but the maximum size is pretty small. If your zip file is still too large, then you can upload it somewhere like www.mediafire.com and then post a link from here.

thats a lot of stuff to do for such a little thing, how about if i just email it to someone and someone puts it up here lol.

Thanks for your part in the format war!

Though personally, i would never do that or talk about it with people at school, people would think i have no life.

So? You shouldn't care too much about what other people think of you! :P
Besides I'm currently working on my MBA and in our Enterprise Development class I did a presentation/project on Blu-ray. Our Prof was a big MS supporter and was so sure HD DVD was going to win. In the end he gave me an A-... I guess you can't argue with the raw data :P

Seriously, i could not give two shits about the people in my class, i have a life. And if they think im a loser, screw them, after the class is over im never going to see them again.

Plus, im not the only person who did a random presentation, Someone did the Death of Tupac (i Know

Beating a dead horse... bringing up/asking something that has been discussed a thousand times before

), Stop Sign (

), and one about the rape of the Native Americans (he was sucking up to our professor because we talked about it in class the other day)

I wouldve done another smiley for the last one, but there is not a guy kissing another guys ass smiley
