Re: Please tell me
M$ seem to be really good at backing the loser: Surface,Windows Phone, HD-DVD, etc.
On the flip side HD-DVD modules are perfect for hacking PCB etchers and other DIY uses and a good way to get into UV lasers.
I made a 3 output PSU from my external which was useful for about maybe 2 years.
Fans got "recycled" to fix a pricey monitor with a bad IC, if you kept it cool no glitches.
What they should do is rebrand not simply abandon the technology. HD-DVD is still used for archiving (security through obscurity?) and Surface tablets are finding medical applications as cheap HD screens for hospital use or so it seems.
