Nice.
In all honesty, Bose will not chose a format. They will wait until the war is over and go with the winning format. Bose doesn't have enough market power to really make a difference. Sure there are Bose-o-holics but there aren't enough of them to dictate the winner of th war. If Bose where to chose a format now it may upset their loyal customers (if they had already decided which format they wanted) and in the future they could possibly upset their loyal customers even more if that format was the loser.
Bose doesn't want people trying to return systems that aren't with the trends, and they also don't want the customers upset if they don't accept returns. Bose is a croud pleasure and would like to maintain the image of wisdom to avoid these problems with its customers. Rest assured if they chose a format now they would lose some customers, and would especially by choosing a losing format.
