Mary..the intercast pc has been here a few yrs. maybe something does it better and that's the rumor.
The rumor could be true but it isn't about tv. It may be lower cost pc.
Let's see..today i watched tv on a 52 inch screen while on the computer.... Don't know if i want to watch tv on a 15" screen. the pc tv is a gimmick. It only has practical uses for peolpe wanting to
digitize a tv program..

So, I'm not saying that a chip that does soemthing doesn't exist.
And it may help the intercast pc... but don't count on a pc-tv causing allot of sales since pc's already do that and it doesn't raise sales at all.
It will be the other way around. Tv's will have pip windows that let you do pc and watch tv or do internet and watch tv.

hope this helps..
