Not so sure about that either, as a PSP owner. With no interest in
watching pr0n on it I should add! For my money UMD failed because it's
slow, it's yet another proprietary Sony format, you can't buy a UMD

Hi Gil!
Around here booze sells really well. Rig up a foxpro app that sends drink

What I heard was that *initially* they wouldn't allow
it. Then they gave in but it was too late. By the
end of Beta there was plenty of porno available.

I'm not sure Linux is superior (I think it probably is, though), but I'm
quite sure Windows is inferior.

The Beta / VHS battle is a good example. Beta clearly
offered a better picture, however, because of mistakes
by Sony, including initially not allowing porno to be
distributed on Beta, and having fewer licensed
manufacturers than JVC, VHS became the de facto video
tape format.
