I’m not dead. I’m scouring TigerDirect for typos.
Yeah, I know. How heroic. Actually, I was in the market for a Blu-ray drive for my PC and ran across:
Norazza DVDBR2PRO 4 Drive Blu-Ray Duplicator with 500GB HD
Norazza DVDBR2PRO 4 Drive Blu-Ray Duplicator with 500GB HD
I asked a sales representative about archiving Blu-ray discs and whether or not a standard DVD-ROM could at least “read” the Blu-ray data. I was not entirely thrilled with the prospect of a $500+ internal Blu-ray drive.
As we carried on a moment about the typo and Blu-ray hardware we came upon the subject of the internal workings of why a DVD-ROM is not forward compatible with Blu-ray.
He said, “Anything is possible with software. But you’d need a programmer to write that software for you as no such software exists like that.”
I chuckled.
As a side note, hopefully I will have something substantial up (famous last words) in a few days or so.
