Toshiba Pulls the Plug on HD-DVD
It looks like it?s all over but for the shouting in the nearly two-year-long HD DVD versus Blu-ray grudge match.

Anyone who has been following along knows that I?m stunned. I predicted the opposite outcome (in my defense, it was early in the war). Let?s look at the latest reports and then some of the columns and stories that led up to it.
