pure FUD PS3 owners don't watch very many movies like Sony said the wood.

Now what will be big is people buying Toshiba brand laptops that feature HD DVD and watching them on the go. The consumer has spoken, Toshiba said, people want HD movies and they want them on the road.

Toshiba followed with, we are fail in teh livin roomz, but people want 1080p and 2 ch. audio on a laptop in their car and hopefully thats where hd dvd comes back.

Also, according to Toshiba hooking your laptop up to your TV and playing movies will be popular, but not via a game console, because its a game console. However, a laptop is not a cumpouter its a HD DVD player (for statistical reasons only, except attach rate).

Toshiba has sold more dedicated players than all blu-ray manufactuers combined (as of Q3 07) (PS3 not included). we iz sorry, we don't have current statiztics

Toshibas has a higher attach rate than blu-ray players (PS3 is included now) cuase it is a blu-ray player after all, rite???

Keep in mind people don't watch blu-ray movies on PS3.

We are pleased to announce Paramount has gone HD DVD exclusive (Aug 20, 2007) We didinz pay tehm off, we sware they want hd dvd to winz without any moneyz involved, and destroyed all teh bladez of glory, tehy just reprinted them rael fast wen we lost. no cluez wat teh xtra cuple millionz is doin on their balance sheet.

PS3 owners play games, not movies. On teh other hand XBOX 360 owners have endorsed teh hd dvd add-on as ther favorite expensive microsoft periphial. hey wat wood u rater have for $199, a HD DVD player or a 20GB HDD for ur Core???

Tranformers btw sold 600,000 on HD DVD and Shrek did real well too.

30GB is enough, unless you want HD audio, but who would want tat on a HD DVD, especially when you have PiP with Shia LeBeaf talking about hiz favorite Tranformers action figures.

The format war in review!!

You should totally copy that into a wikipedia article. It's more accurate than most of the supposed "news" we heard during the format war.
