Apex AD-1500 DVD Player
A computer persons DVD player
I purchased the Apex AD-1500 as my first stand alone DVD player. After viewing several rental DVD's, my perfect DVD's and testing out various computer file formats I must same I'm happy with this and would suggest it to anyone. :D  BTW the color of the player is BLACK, the picture posted when I ordered (was not clear) and I was expecting grey >:0/ but was very pleased to find that the player is black. :D<br />A few people have mentioned they had problems with a pause intervals on scratched discs. We rented Jurassic Park 3 last night,it was pretty roughed up as most rental discs are, the Apex player had no problems except for one small place that it froze for maybe 5 seconds on and then continued. **BUT** I tried the disc at that point in my Playstation 2 and it stopped the movie completely and in my computer viewing the movie it had the same freeze for a few seconds like the Apex 1500 experienced.
