...format war reminiscent of Betamax vs. VHS, in which the biggest losers were the manufacturers of the defeated format (in that case, Sony) and the consumers who bought the wrong machines. If you have an HDTV and you're dying to watch movies in their full HD splendor, the Toshiba box isn't a bad idea. If you're a game player, you will probably want to hold out for the PlayStation 3 or the Xbox HD DVD drive.

Harvard College students are wrong to assume that Harvard Extension School students can’t get an equally great education online, outside the traditional classroom, as those who have the opportunity to study on campus.
