They will play on computers with DVD drives, but I hear that the DVD will lock down to a region after a certain number of uses. I just ordered a Daewoo code free from Impact Computers & Electronics (a Yahoo store). (And we all thought the just made cars!) ($195.90 with shipping.) I'll let y'all know how it turns out.
