and

"The Windows 7 Beta only supports Windows Vista SP1 to Windows 7 upgrades. So if you intend to do an upgrade – be sure it is on a PC running Windows Vista with Service Pack 1."

Question: Are there even 2.5 million Vista users in the world who could do this upgrade? ;)

Considering that 5 free HD-DVDs were given out with Toshiba HD-DVD players, the numbers are not that impressive.

By the way, before you start claiming that PS3s came with coupons, I'll let you know that mine didn't. Same with most on the bluray forum.

This just in!

Fuh Yuan will be making 10,000,000 HD-DVD players! That's right, TEN MILLION! Wal-Mart has decided that Blu-ray sucks, and they aren't going to sell it. Furthermore, they can make a higher profit off of a $199 HD-DVD player than a $400 Sony.

The good news is, they're going to be sold by Christmas time. Yup... all 10 million of them! Perhaps they'll need to make another 5 million more for everyone who can't get one, and has to wait until New Years.

Oh boy, BR is really going to die now.

I'm sorry I don't have any facts to back up this rumor, but as been proven so far, if I start my own rumor, it can be printed as truth everywhere, and just cite itself on various HD-DVD fanboy websites.
