1) As the article says, he was living out of his car. Strange, but not unheard of - especially for someone who likely has few friends and is of limited financial means.
2) He didn't have a book on how to dispose a body, he had a book on murder investigations. As he was the target of one and didn't have a lot of money, this seems pretty reasonable. I'd probably do the same thing.
I could never imagine doing anything meaningful with the Wii given the low resolution of the display. My PS3 works pretty well for browsing either with the default PS3 system software or Yellowdog Linux... but even at 1080p with my 46" LCD, it still is a bit cumbersome.
I really just use it to show Youtube videos occasionally, which is always a sharp contrast to Blu-ray movies...
Unless sony drops the price of their Blu-Ray equipment, Blu-Ray is dead in the water. Have they already forgotten BetaMax?
Unlike HD-DVD, which is largely a Toshiba sponsored format, Blu-ray is supported by an industry consortium. Sony is not the sole producer of Blu-ray players, nor are they even the largest producer. It's up to Samsung, LG, Pioneer, and a host of other companies more than it is up to Sony.
The Day After was nothing more than communist propaganda. From 1920 onward, the Soviet Union invaded practically every nation on its borders. If it wasn't for German war effort and the eventual discovery of the nuclear bomb, all of Europe would have fallen to Soviet occupation. The movie is comical in that it portrays the US as the aggressor against the Soviet Union, and comically ignores that historical evidence points to the exact opposite being the more probable outcome.
