Does anyone know if there is a 3DS "contact" person at Truevision? I'm on my annual Christmas pilgrimage to Indiana and I thought I might visit Truevision in Indianapolis. Alec Jason

You can try to ask Greg Greena in the Truevision Section of the Multimedia vendors forum. He can give you a more precise answer to your question. Happy holidays, Ana

I'm trying to learn Madrid Spanish by watching Almodovar movies ("Atome!", "High Heels", "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" etc. – I don't know the Spanish names for the last two). I really like his filmmaking style – very eccentric humour and good entertainment. Have you seen any of those films? My wife likes them too, but says they are "weird" and a lot like Mexican soap operas <g>. Feliz ano nuevo, eh!

Almodovar movies??? I can't understand the success of these movies in the US. Almodovar movies are based in the Cutre-Look (slang word to define "the like for old-fashioned dirty spanish 60-70-(80?) <g> topics" from toreros and peinetas to flamenco and faralaes, plus some kitsch details). Anyway, he is the only director in spain that earns money (hey Martin!, money?…money? where I've heard about that <bG>). And he have some good movies too (not as good as that mexican Cantinflas movies <BIGGEST G>. Directores favoritos? Hitchcock and Welles (and Stone, R. Scott, FFC, Spielberg and others as well. But specially H. and W…mmm…AH! yes, and specially Lynch. I love On the Air). Happy New Year for you and los tuyos (plenty of health, love and…yes, CAPITALISM'$ BLOOD <again BIG G> Ana

Bueno, no se mucho de la lengua de Cervantes, la facilidad lingual que tengo yo es mas cerca al lengua de Cantinflas. Yo vivi en el ciudad de Mexico de nino por cinco anos — hace mucho, mucho tiempo. Oigame, es dificil escribiendo en espanol — no he escrito asi por muchos anos. Que bonito que no hay acentos en el computador! (Menos opporunidades para equivocaciones). Pero me gusta el ejercicio y el chance para practicar. Este manana fui al las oficinas de Truevision. Esperaba que tenieron un cuarto de demonstracion pero habian oficinas solamente. La gente ahi fueron my amable pero me miraban un poco chueco porque es muy enfrequente gue aparacen visitantes. Hable con un hombre quien se llama "Rob." Tu estas en Espana, no? Me gustaria visitar ahi un dia. Tengo un amigo quien visito ahi y me dijo que es muy costoso vivir in Madrid. Que tipo de trabajo haces ahi?

While you're there, tell them thanks for rushing ATVISTA software updates to me (at their cost) so I could play with the board over Christmas. Wow! Mr. AK sure looks good unbanded and undithered! Santa forgot… maybe the New Year's fairy will bring me that Sony laser disk <g>. JKJ (having a wonderful 32-bit white Christmas) PS. Happy holidays to you and yours! Don't get too smothered with relatives <g>.
