>> But on the flip side, would you buy a $1500 digital TV to surf the web and post in the SI? I personally would not, since I expect to keep buying a computer every couple years(as I have good use for them). OTOH my dad would use a digital TV to surf the web(he already does with his web-tv unit). If he gets cable modem access and more processing power, he absolutely won't mind upgrading(he's told me as much). He has no intentions of going the computer-OSinstallation-pluggingmemory-IRQconflictresolution road(he's not capable and not interested). imho, the sub-zero pc's are about to get a challenge from 'smart-tv"s' of 2001 and in a bigger way than the web-tvs. best -pwm
