When I sell a computer I do the multiple-pass erase, and then do an install from the disc the machine came with - NOT from a more current version of the OS, which won't install the apps the computer came with. Then I quit the setup when the install…

Universal Studios is now saying they won't use the ICT on their initial HD DVD releases. We got ourselves a horse race again, boys!

Quote: Originally posted by Xool Based on my tests, HDMI output is far better than component. That may be, but for myself and everyone else who purchased an HD display before DVI or HDMI were widely adopted, component is what we've got. The st…

Quote: Originally posted by hmurchison ICT is a choice made by the Studio not the platform. Thus if Warner chooses not to use it then they won't enable on either platform. There's a possibility that ICT could be enabled on purchases that didn't …

Sony is now saying they will not be utilizing the Image Constraint Token in their Blu-ray disc releases, so full resolution signals will be passed over analog (component) connectors. With the ICT enabled, resolution over component would be cut in h…

I agree that this model won't be around long, although I suspect the name will stick. I think the plan was to introduce the "Power"Books with Merom mid-year, but Apple decided to pull one model forward to get something into the marketplace. I think…

For those of you who can deciper such things, is it clear whether either format will output high-def over component? From the HD-DVD specs, it sounds like NO; the Samsung Blu-Ray release mentions component but only as part of a list of outputs avai…

I'm sure that when the studios began planning this rollout, they thought the prospect of "Stealth" or "Aeon Flux" in high-def would be a lot more enticing than it is now.

Sales and Refund Policy Click on "Prices." This may apply only to products that see price cuts (for example, if you bought a Cinema Display and Apple dropped the price two days later). I don't know that they would apply this policy to new or…

Quote: Originally posted by PB I do not understand, the Mac mini still comes with a Radeon 9200 ? Did they update it or not? If the hardware pages are correct, it looks like the only changes are to standard RAM, and the $599 and new SuperD…

The new hardware pages are already up. The mini also gets 512MB RAM.
