The second biggest computer maker in the United States, Hewlett-Packard
has decided to support the HD-DVD format as well as the
Blu-ray format. Sony is the biggest player in the Blu-ray
format, while Toshiba heads the pack in the HD-DVD format.
This latest announcement by HP is another salvo in the
format war that will no doubt be fought as both the formats
compete on the market next year. HP said its decision to
support both formats was in the best interest of the
consumers. Last month, HP wanted Blu-Ray makers to include a
host of technical modification in compatible devices. This
demand was not met by the Blu-ray camp and in response HP
decided to have its cake and eat it too.
