Paul, Please help if you can. I went to the local Gateway store yesterday to see the progress of streaming media on the current PC designs. They had a unit w/ a Pentuim III 700 Mhz Coppermine Chip using 128 Mbit 100Mhz SDRAM and a 32Meg video card. They did not have a box with Rambus available to see. I pulled up the latest Gateway annual meeting file under Windows Media and opened it to full screen. Unfortunately, it was only a little better (ie. less blocky) than my current Presario Model w/ 200Mhz Pentium I w/65 Mbit 66 Mhz SDRAM using a cable modem. I've been waiting to upgrade until the picture has little or no "blockiness" on full screen. What needs to be developed for the image "blockiness" to be eliminated or greatly reduced? Will the new Rambus memory do it? Does the video card need to be higher than 32Meg? Does the PC need an even bigger BUS? Since I use a cable modem, I believe I have enough bandwidth. I'm just not sure of exactly what is needed to improve the image. You can see the Gateway Annual Meeting in the Investor Relations are of their home page. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Duncan
