...with the product and realize that, at best, it is what it's supposed to be: a glorified DVD player. Don't get me wrong - even if you have high-definition cable or satellite TV service, it's exciting to pop in a good movie and see how much clearer it is than a standard-definition DVD. With a picture resolution of 1920 x 1080 lines (over 2 million pixels) rather than DVD's 720 x 480 (nearly 350,000 pixels), it can't help but look nicer.

...only become clearer with the passing years, the administrations that conducted the Vietnam War systematically lied about what our military was truly doing in Southeast Asia.

"We need to break with the past," Borsellino told Time.
