the corner, you’re going to need an HDCP compliant monitor if you want to
watch any protected content. Add to this the fact that HD-DVD and Blu-ray
drives should be hitting the market very soon, and

monitor becomes even more apparent.

"mini-plug". Another benefit is the 1.3 HDMI chip can "lip sync",
automatically matching the sound to the video.

any binary protocol.
- Western Digital gives away free software -
The free
software will be given to anyone who bought one of the company's disk drives
from 22 March 2001, through 15 February 2006. It is part of a deal to end a

capacity of 74.4 gigabytes. To get the software, the eligible consumers must
