     I, frankly, find this to be the most absurd thing I've heard in quite
a while. Why would you waste productive time making a cheap entertainment
system with vastly different resolution run software for a computer, when
it's going to look cruddy on an NTSC display anyway? There are 50
bazillion other reasons why this is a foolish waste of time, but I'll save
them for now.

     I find that most of the "announcements" Bill has been making
revolving around the now-defunct "Avatar" and this thing just serve to
get the hopes up of those few terminal die-hards who see Bill as their
saviour. It ain't gonna' happen...
