Toshiba's new dual-format DVD burners
A couple of new dual-format DVD burners from Toshiba, the SD-R5272, which is an 8x speed drive for desktops; and the SD-R6372 (pictured at right), a slim 4x speed model which should start showing up in laptops soon. As we've said before, this whole business of having two competing recordable DVD
formats is frustrating, unnecessary, and leading people to spend extra money on dual-format drives just so they can feel like they've covered all the bases.
