New DVD player is the cats meow

On the advice of a friend I picked up a new DVD player this weekend. Up till this point I have been using my PS/2. I recently downloaded some videos from the internet and and a heck of a time transcoding them to DVD. I tried twice on my PC and finally succeeded on my MAC.

My friend at work explained that new DVD players could play PC/MAC videos burned on a disc.I got the Toshiba SD-3990 from the evil empire (no not Microsoft - Best Buy).

Sure enough it played everything I threw at it:

• MPEG
• DIVX
• WMA

(I haven't tested Quicktime yet)

UPDATE: No Quicktime.

The best part - it only costs $59!

I also picked up Top Gun to add to my 80's action movie collection.
