] Onstage at the Macworld Exposition in San Francisco last ] week, Apple's chief executive, Steven P. Jobs, proclaimed ] 2005 as "the year of high-definition video," a strange ] declaration from someone who was not trying to sell ] television sets. He kept his laser-like focus on the iPod ] and the Mac mini, a new low-priced, book-size computer. ] ] ] But he noted that the giant screen projecting his ] demonstrations was in high definition, gave a cursory ] display of several computer video-editing tools and ] offered an enthusiastic plug for a new Sony ] high-definition video camera. He also invited Sony's ] president, Kunitake Ando, onstage for a brief and cryptic ] appearance and mentioned that the two companies might ] find other things to cooperate on in the future.
