This complementary story puts me at ease, and I can only imagine what Andy will say. This machine will really turn some heads in the PC superstores and draw people away from other non-CUBE containing options. It should make people happy to spend more and move up to the higher end. The parallel with what one nice design did for Acer isn't lost on me, more ZiVAs sold. Maybe this machine will make the cover of some of the PC mags soon, not to mention some product reviews. Maybe they'll even include this part,l which I've read at least 5 times for the effect........On the DVD front, DeNeffe said the company expects to use Hitachi America Ltd.'s double-speed drive and definitely will include Diamond Multimedia Systems Inc.'s [DIMD] MPEG-2 and AC-3 decoding board. NEC considered software decoding but decided against it rather than risk inferior playback. "We've had some nightmarish experiences with MPEG-2 done in software," DeNeffe said. It's just not ready for prime time."
