PC buyers can look forward to DVDs with up to 10 times the storage they now have when Hewlett-Packard rolls out machines supporting next-generation DVD technology next year.
In the latest sign that a standards war is petering out, Toshiba has introduced dual-format DVD recordable drives.
One side of the ongoing recordable DVD format battle is expected to be first with products that nearly double the amount of data held on one disc. But that victory may not put an end to the feud.
The group behind the DVD+R/+RW specification said dual-layer recordable discs will hit the market next year, allowing storage of up to 16 hours of recorded video.
After years of backing only one format in the recordable DVD format war, Apple Computer is adding limited support of a rival format into its operating system.

Tape, disk, or optical? We set a budget of AU$20,000 and asked three vendors to come up with a storage solution.
While the lack of supported online expansion and de-dupe is a concern, if you need your tape backups to go faster, Tandberg's DPS1200 VTL may deliver what you need.
Dell's Latitude E6400 is a full featured business laptop that delivers on performance, battery life and price in one neat bundle.
Lenovo's ThinkPad T400 is another fine entry into its portfolio, but be prepared to spend extra to get the features you need.
The RS700-E6/RS4 1RU bare-bones server, features dual-socket Xeon 5500 series support and 12 DDR3 1066/1333 sockets for a maximum 96GB RAM. You'll need to bring your own components to fit these though, depending on your needs.
The Dell Inspiron 15 is likely the best bang for buck you'll get for AU$1000, from its battery life to its upgrade options. We do miss the numpad, but the rest is perfect for the budget-conscious user.
