TS-Horse: Dave, thanks for the consideration. While I steered away from the TV/Capture/etc cards on the 'why use a $2000+ computer as a phone when a $20 phone does a better job without IPL?' theory, for $110 it certainly deserves another look. I hadn't really considered the Inet-based TV stuff, but I guess as bandwidth increases we'll see more of that content. Thanks for the links! Regards, Paul Edit/P.S.: BTW Writing this on IE window #1 of 9 running smoothly (for the moment <g>) on a P5-166 32mg along with Wall Street Analyst RT, Excel and Outlook express. Two of the 9 IE windows are Gritch clients. What's amazing is that it's been up since yesterday on the original W95 build! (Yes, my fingers are crossed! <g>) I believe I've had fewer mid-day reboots since I stopped running Netscape V3.? along with this type of mix.
