>>It's actually a very fine product idea. However, a SunRay is not a Big Mac, and people have been condidtioned to believe Big Mac's are food. Therefore regardless of the merits, the ISP's SunRay has almost a guaranteed zero chance of ever seeing the light of day, let alone broad market success. << now you're on to something...big macs, music, quicken, and porn. there are COUNTLESS reasons this thing is DOOHHAAHHHH..;-)
