Sorry, I think I came across more harshly than I intended. I don't know what the consumer market will do to the PC market. I do think that the existing PCs will not be up to the tasks required by the devices in the near future for the reasons mentioned. There are other possibilities than buying a new PC. But the other options must be cheap, easy to use, and compatable. PCs aren't easy to set up, Macs aren't cheap (but getting there), bandwidth isn't there (yet) for storage on the net, Tivo/Replay TV isn't compatable. I don't know who's going to win, but I will bet on Intel being inside. Tom
