[X4U] dual layer DVR for G5

[Robert Ashton]

Unless you really need an optical drive I would wait till early next  
year when HD dvd and Blu-ray technologies will both be out. This  
means that what ever drive that you pick now is going to be replaced  
shortly. This new technology will allow better video with allowing  
more data being written to the disks. The only problem is that Dell,  
HP and Apple Computer support Blu-ray, while PC parts suppliers  
Microsoft, Intel, Toshiba and NEC back HD-DVD. So we as a consumer  
being brought back into the VHS / betamax war.It would be nice if we  
could go into the future to see who wins so that we can pick the  
right technology now. I, like you really would like to upgrade the  
optical drive in my computer and I have considered a dl drive but I  
can wait. Lets hope that the HD-DVD / Blu-ray war ends quickly so we  
as consumers don't make the mistake of purchasing the wrong drive. Bob
