ALL Wal-Marts?
I'll have to check it out, I don't remember seeing MD at Wal-Mart but
maybe it's there, I noticed they've been totally reorganizing the
electronics section at the Wal-Mart Supercenter that I go to. Perhaps
that reorganization includes MD.
Maybe Best Buy and Circuit City just gave up on it too fast.
I'm excited about NetMD breathing more life into the format, but so far
it's just been vaporware with no model #'s and no product
announcements. Reminds me of all the vaporware products that were
announced to breath new life into the Apple II line of personal
computers - right before it died (anyone remember those?).
