It's using some sort of Blu-Ray technology. They just aren't paying to have the right for video playback, that's all. It costs extra for them to allow it. That's the only reason the Wii didn't play DVDs.AznKhmerBoi wrote:So what kind of optical disk drive is it using then?

I don't know, I could just never get into grilling in the winter time. My grill is now put away. I'll use it again in the March/April timeframe.the King wrote:The best part about grilling in November is that you don't have to worry about your beer getting warm.
Now I focus on making casseroles, chilis, stew type dishes.

It was a beautiful fall day here yesterday. Had to take advantage before it gets too cold although I do leave the grill out year round. It's right by my side door, so it works out pretty good.

Love grilling in the Fall and Winter, even more so than in the Summer. Same goes with smoking cigars. At the same time, I also enjoy 20 degree weather as it reminds me of being in Chicago so that's part of the equation.
I was looking at a lot of throwaways last night and saw one that wasn't half bad:
Religion is prophetable.
