Both Apple and Dell are planning to make significant inroads into Blu-ray over the coming months, according to both official and unofficial sources. Citing an unconfirmed source, AppleInsider claims that Apple has tapped Sony for slot-loading Blu-ray writers for its MacBook Pro systems.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Yay! As long as it doesn't drive up the price too much, i might leave Microsoft in favour for Apple!
but lets take some things into account here, if apple and Disney are both part of the blu ray camp which they are, why wouldn't apple build their new note books with a built in blu ray drive? besides if people start demanding it than Steve jobs will have no choice but to comply thats all. sure he doesn't seem to care too much about the format, but i bet he is open to options if they are available at his disposal.
and please do add to the fact that apple is known for making their products with the latest built in technology.
but yeah they are having some what of a success with their service, but i do see them adopting blu ray sooner or later once the drives become extremely cheap and costs are at an all time minimum.
and in 09 i see most if not 89% percent of the pc adopt this format as they become cheaper by the dozen, and than people are going to be saying why doesn't apple have a blu ray drive in their laptops? and then what Steve jobs gets a call from the board of directors and have to adjust his business model to whats out there is that simple.
it just happens whether it be a burner, or a movie drive it will surely happen bank on it.
I've looking forward to seeing a Blu-ray Mac Book Air and w/ a 17 inch screen.
Maybe even get some PS3 action going on w/ the SIX AXIS on my computer or lap top.
once you can start downloading HD media, you will need allot of HDD space or, somwhere to store it, Blue Ray has your back.
