Sounds Ok and cheap. But until this year i'll get no graduation, i have to save my money a little bit. And waiting never was bad at buying PC components. Beware Pil, I bought a new computer earlier in the year and mistakenly allowed my "better"? half to talk me into a slightly less expensive computer, I figured I could throw in a BD drive...right....WRONG. LOL, I checked on a BD-Drive and it said it wanted a bigger video card, OK that's not that big a deal...wrong again. The video card said it wanted a 350W power suplly. Total cost upgrade was $350 6 months ago, I haven't looked again because it was too depressing. Skip | | | ASSUME NOTHING!!!!!! CBE, MBE, MoA and proud of it. Outta here

| Posted: | | | | You only need an upgraded video card if you plan to watch BD on your PC. Don't need it for reading disc IDs Btw 350W has been pretty small for a PC for a long time. I'll be surprised if you have something smaller than that. |

Thanks for the hint Skip. Got a similiar experience some years ago at upgrading a friends computer, so I'm aware of this. |

Hmm, after i saw some of the movies of this package i think i have to go this or a similiar way. My last idea was to ask someone who has this BRs to add profiles based on the disc ids, but this wont't work. Because the versions from this package seem to be different to the single sold BRs. ("abgespeckte" =? flattened menues, ...) |
