Don info on Sony's VAIO video software/board , no OS noted

AAPL's new 400MZ G3 for $1,999 with a DVD looked fairly priced .

Unfortunately Sony says it has no plans (yet) to sell the product elsewhere:

----
" May 12, 1999 (TOKYO) -- Sony Corp. announced that it has developed Giga Pocket, a
type of software that records, replays and controls TV programs and video on a
personal computer's HDD.

Sony will preinstall the software on VAIO
model PCs that will come equipped with
an MPEG2 real-time encoder and TV tuner
board. The Giga Pocket features ease of
use, Sony said. For example, it enables
users to set a TV program in advance from
a TV program information site on the
Internet.

Giga Pocket comprises four programs:
Giga Videorecorder, Reservation Wizard,
Video Explorer and Playlist Builder. "

" Sony is considering a move to offer the software to the users of products equipped
with MPEG2 real-time encoder boards, including the PCV-S620L5, which is already on
the market.

The Tokyo-based company has no plans to sell the software only or to engage in
packaged sales with the board. "

Maybe after MacWorld AAPL's audio/visual offerings will be enhanced and your profits from investing in AAPL stock will be a deciding factor .

Might check with Soup the thread's resident AAPL vendor .
