For those interested in playing WMV-HD DVD's on their xbox 360, I figured out a trick to make it work with a Windows Media Center machine. First, insert the WMV-HD DVD into the WMCE computer and allow it to play for a few seconds...this ensures the DRM has been authorized on your computer. Then, browse the DVD and find the .wmv file on the DVD and copy it to your My Videos folder or whatever folder you have setup to share videos to your xbox 360. After it's finished copying you can now play it on your hdtv with your xbox 360. I used this trick with my Fighter Pilot WMV-HD DVD and it works perfectly! I still cannot beleive MS didn't build WMV-HD DVD support into the xbox360, shame on them!
HP has had plenty of time to fine-tune its finger-friendly TouchSmart software, and now, its newest model, the TouchSmart 610, ushers in a fresh design, highlighted by a hinge that allows the display to slide down and lie nearly flat.
