Toshiba To Offer Laptops With HD-DVD in 2005

Posted by samzenpus on from the what-about-the-sound dept.

LBArrettAnderson writes "Toshiba will release laptops with HD-DVD under its high-end Qosmio brand and plans to ship one million units in the first year to Europe, the U.S. and China, as well as Japan. The company claims the slimline HD-DVD format is more suitable to laptop PCs than the rival Blu-ray Disc format."

    Some gookers have come up with their own crazy HDDVD format, a la Betamax. The zipperheads want you to buy it, even though it will be incompatible with what the world ends up using. Gookers also give us a good chuckle by proposing a price of $2000 for this POS.

    Dumbass, Blu-Ray won the format war, get over it or shut the fuck up.
