- Well, the consumer will have to decide. And they will. The
- $100 million that Philips invested, and the $200 million that
- Sony invested, doesn't total up to the amount the RCA invested
- in the CED Video disk player. ( I seem to remember that they
- were bout $400 million into that one, or am I confusing it with
- another RCA product).
