Where both twins had the disease, there was an average of 3.66 years difference in age at onset between 25 sets of identical twins, and 8.12 years differencebetween 20 sets of fraternal (dizygotic) twins, suggesting genes had a role in determining when Alzheimer's was seen.
Another worry, according to Robin Harris, an analyst with the Data Mobility Group, is that Blu-Ray adoption will be slow because few people will notice the differencebetween formats, since many players can neatly "up-convert" DVDs for high-definition sets.
