So... This freebie HP PC I picked up from the dump recently can play HD DVDs. You know, HD DVDs, the thing that lost to Blu-ray in the late 2000s.
Seriously, this screams 2007. Glossy piano black plastics everywhere, Windows Vista Home Premium, and of course, the ability to play movies on a format that would die three months after this PC was built. Now to wait for all the HD DVDs I bought cheap off eBay to arrive so I can properly see if this works.
