Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are convinced that we want to use computers to do everything and frankly, I think they're nuts. If I can order movies from Blockbuster online and have them delivered in the mail and can order 3 at a time so that I always have new movies to watch, even if I watch one a day, why the hell would I want to download them to my computer? And now with Blueray the movies look better on a HD TV than they do at the movies.

Hammer, with new PCs and new TVs, you can run an HDMI connection right to the TV and watch it full screen HD just like a disc. Microsoft and Apple both has suggested different ways to get the point of a "PC next to every TV, an integrated part of any home entertainment system". It's coming, it won't be all that long, as PC prices continue to drop down to the level of a good toaster oven.
