Micro$oft to Blow Us Up
Maybe out of scope, but let's pray that we will not be out of scope
all of us soon :-(
Microsoft uncovered yesterday the new features of Memphis (Windows
97, to be shipped at mid '98) and NT 5.0. Among the dozens of new
features, there are 2 main (according to my opinion):
1. Most of the interface with the computer and the system will be
done using Explorer 4.0.
2. A full integration with TV will be implemented. It doesn't mean
only that you will be able to watch TV on the PC, but that a TV
tuner is integrated into the OS, and that you will browse
between TV channels and programs, use CATV/satellite and normal
TV broadcasting in parallel with internal support of the OS,
and much more features. HDTV died, long live (Bill) the King!
For more info, look at:

P.S. If you are going to buy a video-tape, better think twice before!
