I don't even like touching the door handles. The thought of touching a keyboard that has been on someones lap while they were crapping disgusts me!

Adding a Web connection isn't far off, and since TV and Internet are slowly converging to digital streamed media, I'd say we see it within 10 years.

Quote: Originally posted by PDXterra: since TV and Internet are slowly converging to digital streamed media, I'd say we see it within 10 years. You know, I don't see it happening anytime soon. As soon as we have enough bandwidth to watch television on the internet at TV quality, commercial television will be on to HD. It's going to be a LONG time before they converge completely. _________________________ "Nature has constituted utility to man the standard and test of virtue.

PDXterra Member Registered: 27/02/03 Posts: 857 Loc: Portland, OR	I'd agree with you completely, especially given that industry still wants consumers to purchase two separate pieces of hardware for TV and Internet. Granted, they can't make twice as much money if they only sell you one box that "does it all." But then there's that pesky AOL thing... Time-Warner owns AOL, AOL owns Netscape, and Time-Warner/AOL recently bought the largest cable company on the west coast from AT&T, Comcast. Comcast (which also sells cable modems and Internet access) has virtually a nationwide viewership, and it is rumored that the next version of their broadband software will be built on AOL. If that isn't a covergence of media, I don't know what is!

OffroadX Member Registered: 17/08/00 Posts: 13694 Loc: Baltimore, MD	It's a very common mistake in general, but only because Brent and Brett sound alike and Brett is more common. It is kinda weird on a message board where it's actually spelled out, takes a pretty big brain fart to screw it up Brent _________________________ Tip: see if your question has already been answered before asking it.
