CyberLink BD / HD Advisor

I don't see "CyberRink" anywhere, so "sic" isn't valid.

Wow, 2.8GHz P4 CPU isn't good enough according to them. Hope Dell is ready to stop selling those things as their base configuration, not to mention all those weedy little Celerons.

This seems about as useful as the Vista Upgrade Advisor. Surprise, I don't have a BD or HDDVD drive and am not ready!
 
"sic" is valid on account of my intentional mispelling according to common Engrish so as to bring teh funneh [sic] (again).

My CPU and GPU fail too but that doesn't prevent playing HD AVC content. The real issue for BD / HD-DVD is the lack of a drive and HDCP.

FYI, the download link is provided without email verification or such so it is not necessary to submit any real info.
 
WinXP SP2 is HD ready for both BD/HD. Interesting, I thought both were Vista only. None of my displays on this PC are compliant, otherwise its just the drive and software.

Same here, but I don't use a digital connection, so I'm just missing the drive and software. Well, till the ICT gets turned in.

Anybody else think it's ridiculous that they say nothing slower then a 2.2GHz X2 can play BR or HDDVD?

Well you can play 1080/720 AVC files now to see for yourself. Seems pretty reasonable (without decent hardware acceleration), it takes a stout CPU for compressed HD content.

"sic" is usually used when you're quoting other people (or maybe quoting something you wrote before but that's borderline) and want to make clear that their own spelling or word choice was mistaken, rather than your quote being misspelled. I looked it up and it appears that it can indicate intentional misspelling, but that's just dumb to me and I have never in my entire life up to this point seen it used that way.

Completely off-topic of course, I know.
