Irving (CA) - More than a year after recordable Blu-ray Disc media became available, HD DVD has finally made its way into the same market with Toshiba's latest notebook computer.

Toshiba, which is the main financial backer for the HD DVD format, has begun shipping the Qosmio G45-AV680 laptop. It's the first computer in the US to have a built-in HD DVD burner. Although blank HD DVD media was ready pretty much right when the first high-def movies became available, it's taken a while for the technology to make its way to the states.

Thats cool! The more support HD-DVD can get from Toshiba the better! Lets just end the war on the better format and forget about high priced blu-ray!
