I have this bit of technolgy that will give you a partial Visual Virtual Reality and Full Audio Virtual Reality. my address is known by DVD exchange group e-mail me when your coming. I will have it all set up for Disney Worlds, not used but still remebered E Ticket ride.
Disney World don't have this, it was born about 30 years ago, but I had to wait for some technology to become invented. The first time I thought of it was in a ST:TOS episode, where a light in the ceiling drained your mind. The tormenter AKA programmer put new images and thoughts into your mind. 2nd movie Brainstorm and last movie Dreamscape.
You can come in with a grin but you will go out positive, that you have to have such a system. I have wiped the grins off hundreds of people who started grinning when handed a pair of headphones. I have received quite a numbe of blank check offers, for the audio speciists besides UPS, UPPS, Fed-Ex never turned down a crippled man with a new sound system. You can see there eyebrows going up, which means they are impressed then a look of awe and the headphones they had in their hands with a how could you do this, with headphones yet?
PLK when your coming get ready for the wildest 46 seconds on video. Audio alone 4M26S long that will place you in the 2nd row center of concert made in 1988 in a open air ampi-theater known as The Greek in Los Angeles, CA.
After you have had a taste of it, you will want to wont such a system contrived by what you believe is a mad man with lousy grammer! Believe it or not come see
and find out for yourself, you don't need to walk to fly. This for the same length of time is better than making love. You will not see any lol, for I am as serious as I can get that this real, adapted for DVD use in 1998 tweaked to the max for Chapter 16 and your real to your *mind* only seen 'ride' the Dr. Daniel Jackson Kalium Galaxy Stargate ride!!

I'm not going to be ready for HD-DVD until we get the original Star Wars movie on the DVD format!
Seriously, it was Toshiba that came up with a "backward compatible" blu-ray HD-DVD format ... and it hasn't really been killed just yet.
The HD-DVD software committee will set a standard and decide on a format next year. Their choices include:
1. A ruby red laser format with a higher compression codec (like MPEG-4). This format would be inherently backward compatible with the current DVD format. It would also limit the bandwidth and "dynamics" of the new format. This format doesn't seem to have much momentum behind it at the moment. If it is adopted, the end result would not look as good as even D-VHS tape. Plus, the "Hollywood Types" would insist that any HD compression codec that's adopted would never be allowed to be recognized by a computer. (This would be very difficult to enforce.)
2. The Toshiba proposal which would require their version of the "blu-ray" laser. Toshiba has engineered their pickup such that it will have the ability to also read all the old "legacy" DVD's. The problem is that by doing that their version of HD-DVD would not be able to pack as much information onto the disc as the current technology would allow. This would potentially limit the bandwidth of the HD stream. (Although the bandwidth will still be "close" to the D-VHS standard.) The main problem with this proposal is that they are currently the only vendor touting this system. HOWEVER, this is the version that the "Hollywood guys" seem the most comfortable with since computers would not be able to directly read the HD transfer. (Computer systems have already adopted the "pure" and more readily available standard blu-ray concept.)
3. The so-called "pure" blu-ray HD-DVD, which is being touted by Sony and others. This version would not be backward compatible with the current DVD format, but would provide the biggest jump in picture quality. (However, it could be possible to provide backward compatibility via the use of a standard ruby red laser on a separate pickup.) The main problem with this format proposal is the fact that it's already showing up on computers; and the studios (except for Columbia Tri-Star, which is owned by Sony) are therefore very hesitant regarding its adoption.
So, there you go! With all that confusion, we can probably expect a workable HD-DVD format around the end of the decade.
Maybe we'll have the original Star Wars movie on DVD by then!
