Betamax to HD-DVD Converter is Already Obsolete
April 8th, 2008
ThinkGeek recently announced their latest electronic gadget, a device that can easily convert your old Betamax Tapes to brand-spankin’-new HD-DVD discs.

While it won’t handle transfers of DIVX, MiniDisc or SelectaVision Videodiscs, the BetaMaxHD will convert between two of the most undoubtedly out-of-fashion consumer media formats money can (or can’t) buy.
I’m not sure how I missed this one back on April Fools’ Day, but I thought it was too good to not mention.
I think I’ll stick with my cassette to 8-track tape converter.

STUPIDEST JOKE EVER
Hi.
What a GREAT invention that would be!
I’d buy one.I have a LOT of old beta videtapes I’d like to convert to DVD!
maybe they should have also made a CED disk to HD DVD converter as well.
