Smeggy Posted February 19, 2008 Report Posted February 19, 2008 Interesting! Ouch, that's gotta smart. Quote
postjack Posted February 19, 2008 Report Posted February 19, 2008 Ouch, that's gotta smart. Well, I haven't bought the PS3 yet, but I probably still will, since we know its a good Blu-Ray player, and all we know about the Xbox Blu Ray addon drive is that tkam said it is coming out in a few months.

tkam Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Posted February 19, 2008 It will be coming out in a few months . May at the earliest, though no price estimate has been given. It'll be interesting to see if they can get it down around $200 like the hd-dvd add-on was. Quote
aardvark baguette Posted February 19, 2008 Report Posted February 19, 2008 This is what happens when a software company makes hardware. Quote
hungrych Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Ouch, that's gotta smart. Smart? They get to make us buy the same shit from them twice... ._. Quote
Smeggy Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Smart? They get to make us buy the same shit from them twice... ._. That's true. Ok then.. Sweet. That'll boost our profits! Quote
mirumu Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 At least if MS make a cheaper external BD-ROM drive it should be usable with a PC like their HD-DVD drive is. Still, I'd rather have a burner. Quote
hungrych Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 That's true. Ok then.. Sweet. That'll boost our profits! So when Sony hires you, do they make you hand in your human race membership card before or after you drink the blood of the hobo they have you capture? Quote

That was my impression of a MS exec. Anyway, Sony didn't hire me, they bought the company I work for. However, it is true they made us drink hobo blood. :'( Quote
mirumu Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 The Lite-On SATA blu-ray burner isn't terribly priced at $350 Oh? I hadn't seen that one around. Local retailers would probably double that price, but importing would work out quite reasonable I expect. Think I'll have to check it out. Quote
