is an untapped market of people that feel they are too stupid to even own a
PC. Microsoft was too early with the WebTV idea and too
expensive. Other problem was that the WebTV stuff blocked the TV
watching. It would be cool to have a separate PC that could send
stupid videos from Gootube to the TV so everyone could watch some punk hurt
himself.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
