Toshiba Will Soon Unleash Hi Def DVD Player
"HDTV SETS ARE STUNNING -- until you pop in a movie and are reminded that DVDs are not recorded in high definition. . . That will change this year when Toshiba introduces the first high-def disc player for the US market. Toshiba's breakthrough box, an HD DVD player that at press time was still unnamed, will cost about $1,000. . ."
Random Humor: Ancient Commie Joke
Stalin, Kruschev and Brezhnev are in a train which suddenly stops. Stalin climbs out of the cabin and orders the driver to move. When he fails to do so, Stalin pulls out a gun and shoots the driver. Still the train does not move.
Kruschev says, "I'll get this train moving." So he climbs out and begins to harangue the train's crew with slogans and fiery speeches, banging his shoe on the table top to make his points. But the train still does not move. Kruschev returns to the cabin and sits down.
Brezhnev turns to his fellow travelers and pulling down the blinds says, "Let's just pretend the train is moving."
