 Funny that you should mention Marv Soloff - his was a real jerk's answer
 to the first question (Why is the Philips DVP 642 so big?) that I have
 ever posted to this newsgroup.
 
 In the same thread, Biz was superficially correct, but hardly helpful.
 "You've got a circuit board, power supply, the back
 panel has to be big enough to carry all the connecters, adn the front panel
 needs to be big enough for a proper display, plus all the buttons....If its
 too big, buy another player"
 
 Hey, Biz, *ALL* DVD players have the items you mentioned.  So that is a
 crappy non-answer as to why the Philips is so big.
 
 In case anyone knowledgeable reads this, I was wondering if the Philips
 DVP 642 possibly had a better layout as far as heat dissipation, or maybe
 had more chips than some other DVD players - you know, the kind of thing
 that might have some relation to quality or reliability.
