I think you'd be surprised. Right now the cable companies are trying to provide the products to the broadest market.
Surfing the web on TV doesn't work well unless you have a nice TV, so besides the 20 or so HD channels the majority of the market is still geared towards normal low-def televisions. The people that have the nice HD-TVs usually have a computer, and probably a nice one so they aren't demanding it yet. I have a PC hooked up to my TV and I hardly use it I have a wireless keyboard and a fancy gyro mouse that works really well, but I just don't use it. I have my laptop and I use that. > -----Original Message----- > From: Rick Root [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, April 09, 2007 12:06 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Is "Microsoft" Dead? > > > I think the cable box is just as likely, but I'm not sure cable > companies are that innovative. > > More and more people have HD TVs, with VGA or DVI inputs.
