Rep told me not to worry...
My rep came over and told me how sorry he was about Toshiba giving up here. As a sign of his loyalty to me, he gave me all of his HD-DVD discs to use on my XBOX 360. When I asked him what he would do for high definition DVD content now, he told me not to worry; he told me his only concern was for my well being. One of my MCSEs called me later to tell me he saw my rep looking at Blu-ray players in Best Buy. I told the MCSE to watch his loose lips; my rep was most likely doing a recon mission to help Microsoft destroy Blu-ray. My rep confirmed this and told me "Microsoft will destroy Blu-ray at a time and location of its choosing".
