Ya its right my dear. Apple and Dell are planning their new notebooks to have Blu-ray in them. Apple has tapped Sony for slot-loading Blu-ray writers for its Mac Book Pro systems. Development is said to have been progressing far enough that the drives may have appeared in the most recent update to the portables but were held back by quality issues with both the blue laser and slot-load mechanism, forcing Apple to postpone its plans. A combo drive, which could burn DVDs and CDs but only read Blu-ray discs, was reportedly offered to Apple but turned down. Dell plans to offer one of the least expensive Blu-ray notebooks yet, according to statements by technology strategist Brian Zucker. Without providing many details, the expert claims his company will have a portable below the $1,000 mark in March that can at least read Blu-ray media, setting a new point of entry for the format. Dell already offers Blu-ray on many notebooks but often reserves it as an option due to the typically high price for these drives.
