Kathy: That sounds exciting! Please ask Shogo to send us something about it. I know there are an awful lot of excess computing cycles in the supercomputer centers around the country, and it would be great if the entertainment industry can use them! >> This is one reason I've been saying don't count out CD-I yet<< I know, and Paramount has made some deal (or is this the same one?). CD-I's FMV is still not for sale. And when it is, it still places the consumer in the position of buying a $700 vcr (instead of just buying a $700 video game machine). The big plus here is that once the movies are digitized, the producers can put them on a dsc of any format they choose. This kind of capability will not become the exclusive bailiwick of any one manufacturer, like Philips **or** Sony. So all this effort is to the good! I look forward to learning more – Rich
