Micro$quat is losing a lot of money with the collapse of HD-DUD. They
did egg Toshiba on to take the brunt of the risk and Toshiba is going
to pay mightily for being another Micro$quish sucker like Sega. But
Micro$tupid invested quite a bit into HD-DUD also.
This is their HD-DVD emulator. They must have spent a few millions
developing that:

And they were trying to sell it for $3000 (what a ripoff, how many
suckers bit that one?):

They also developed more tools and webpages for HD-DUD, now all down
the toilet:

To top it off, to maintain any kind of lame position in the high
density data medium, movies and games, they will have to pay out to
Sony for Blu-ray drives, Blu-ray media, Blu-ray development tools, Blu-
ray authoring fees, Blu-ray mastering fees, and so on and so on. That
is alright. Sony holds no grudge against Micro$ucker and will take
their money just as well as any other customer. Well, they may charge
Micro$orry some extra premiums...
