pointing out your lies isn't cheering

>> We aren't discussing HD-DVD here, <<

I'm not discussing it. I'm just observing that your decisions and claims about these issues has been bass ackward and that you are still hanging on to some pathological wish for blu-ray to fail.

>> but just to keep the facts straight, you're dead wrong. The reasons aren't specious. Many folks in the industry STILL consider HD-DVD was the best shot at a next generation high resolution format for a variety of reasons, not the least of which being competitive pricing of players and media, and the fact that HD-DVD had fewer glitches and was more market ready when introduced. <<

You just said we're not discussing HD DVD and then you launch into this gushing endorsement of a dead format? Let it go, auph. It's done. Move on. Sell your doorstop and coasters and buy yourself a PS3.

>>As for being insulting, that's a laugh. In Yiddish I believe it's also called chutzpah. You're the dude who acted like a giddy fan-boy creaming yourself over every biased Blu-ray assertion and quick to ridicule those of us who had any interest in HD-DVD. Don't try spinning that baloney here because it's easy to locate your silliness in the archives. <<

You could not even deal with a simple post about Nielson ratings without making accusations like that above, peppered with childish "cheerleader" comments and other stupid insults only you could find funny. Sorry you were stupid enough to choose the losing format and sorry you were too hardheaded to understand what the numbers meant, both the specifications and the sales that clearly showed you picked the losing dog in the fight. If you're not prepared to admit you were wrong, you can't yet learn from your mistakes.
