Yeah - Maybe CPQ could come out with a 'Presario by Oprah'... It would come preloaded with a TV tuner card, and software to automatically turn the PC on when the show is broadcast! When idle, the screensaver would of course show Oprah's face! Based on what happens to book sales when featured on the show, I'd have to say this would mean a couple million additional sales to Compaq!!!! John <gggg> PS - Perchance could there also be software loaded that would make it effortless for the new buyer to also purchase Compaq stock directly from the company? They could make it 'one button access', just like AOL.....
