Another Skirmish in the HD vs Blu-Ray War (Dec 03 2004 23:40 GMT) - It sounds like SD vs MMCD all over again In 1994-95 there was a big brouhaha over whether the "Next Greatest Thing" would be called HDCD (mainly promoted by Time-Warner-Toshiba, etc.) or MMCD (the brain-child of Philips, Sony and others). An unofficial "shoot-out" was held at REPLItech in Santa Clara, with the consensus being that both were wonderful technologies, but the market wanted just one format, please. Anybody remember BetaMax vs VHS? Now, of course, we are in the midst of the same song, second verse. |

Oversæt en tekst fra spansk til dansk? (Dec 03 2004 23:39 GMT) - Der her har INTET med IT at gøre, men jeg kender ikke andre forums der er så stærkt besat af kompetente mennesker som her på eksperten. Jeg er stor fan af fodboldholdet Valencia. Uheldigvis oversætter de kun få artikler til engelsk og det er derfor svært at følge hvordan det går med spillernes skader. Derfor vil jeg høre om der er en venlig sjæl der vil prøve at oversætte/resumere følgende artikel fra spansk til dansk: "Jugar sencillo y con fuerza mental". |

Literal Answers to Rhetorical Questions (Dec 03 2004 23:39 GMT) - People commonly ask empty rhetorical questions that rarely receive any sort of sensible answer. When you have had your surfeit of poetical whimsy and are ready for some good, hard facts, come here to be set straight.

Muerte en el Pentagonito (Dec 03 2004 23:35 GMT) - Es el título de un nuevo libro sobre la era Fujimori-Montesinos que viene con la firma de Ricardo Uceda.

Los cementerios secretos del Ejército Peruano (Bogotá, Planeta, 2004, 478pp.), sin duda el libro más informado sobre la lucha contra Sendero Luminoso, SL, 1982-1993. |
