Holiday greetings from HDTV Newsletter: Subj: HDTV NEWSLIST Date: 97-12-25 13:33:41 EST From: hdtvnew@pioneer.net (Dale Cripps) To: hdtvnew@pioneer.net CHRISTMAS DAY, 1997 As we gather around the tree this morning we can appreciate the many things our times provide for us. We can also be grateful that the corner has been turned in our long quest for high-definition television. There are now enough people engaged in resolving the difficult questions which trouble the implantation. The receivers are underway from the prototype shops and will be shown with fanfare at the Consumer Electronics Show next month. The broadcasters are gearing up with appropriate transmission equipment and program material. Even the illusive business model is starting to take shape and money will be made as result of the enhanced demand by the public for higher grade services. The government is looking for new ways around old image problems at the EPA, the DoD, and several other agencies are poised to add large HDTV equipment budgets for the coming year and years. In short, the period of doubt is being replaced with a deserved confidence. Under your tree next year, and all years to follow, can be that large screen HDTV set you have been working for. By this time next year programs will fill the air to illuminate that set, along with a plethora of ancillary data services to add interest and education to our lives. So, we enter this hope filled season with a new view to the future-not one clouded by dire prediction of doom and gloom, but rather a vibrant vision that looks straight to the light of success and opportunity, decimating, as it moves across humanity, the dark influence of inadequacy and failure. Merry Christmas to all, and to all a happy New Year. Dale Cripps and staff HDTV Newsletter
