Bill Gates demonstrates the future of recordable digital video on the PC at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference, using a C-CUBE codec.........

<<At Bill Gates' keynote presentation, he used C-Cube's 2Real single-chip MPEG-2 encoding and decoding (codec) technology
to show how digital video recordability will open new opportunities for consumer and business PC users.

By delivering the technology that enables PC users to capture, edit and even record broadcast quality video onto a DVD disk,
C-Cube is driving digital video hardware advancements in tandem with Microsoft's vision.

''Digital video brings a new dimension to personal computing,'' said Peter Biddle, Technical Evangelist for Microsoft
Corporation. (NASDAQ:MSFT - news)

''Our customers want no-compromise, high-quality digital video and audio at an affordable price. The combination of
Microsoft Windows and C-Cube's 2Real codec will deliver this in entirely new ways -- from extremely easy recording of TV
shows to digital video editing. Microsoft and C-Cube have a vision of entertainment and digital video as a core common data
type ... C-Cube is able to demonstrate this shared vision today.''

C-Cube's 2Real solution is the industry's only single-chip MPEG-2 codec architecture capable of addressing this year's
market for recordable DVD, Advanced TV and other MPEG-2 based PC encoding applications. C-Cube is also the first to
support Windows 98 for real-time MPEG-2 encoding and playback, positioning C-Cube to be the premier provider for
recordable video technology on the PC platform. >>

Robert:
I didn't write that, Briefing.com did. I assume they're talking about MSFT's $9 billion surplus? Unfortunately, I can't do more than guess. Good luck.
