I answered in a way you should have been able to understand, Craig. It's the
same old story. In short, how many people TODAY have gone to the new scheme, be
it Internet TV or be it HDTV back then, should not be the issue. What the issue
should be, as if this wasn't obvious from the start, is the way things are
trending.
It was drop dead obvious back in the late 1990s and early 2000s that HDTV was
going to be the "new normal," and it's equally obvious now that Internet
carriage of TV will be the new normal. Yet, you remain equally stubborn.
(I'm sure I can slog through the Topica archives to find some relevant quotes.)

Read again what I said. Dell does not need a license for me to stream cbs.com
content, Craig, nor Hulu, Hulu Plus, Netflix, or anyone else, either free
ad-supported, or by subscription. I did not have to download anything special.
Dell did not have to get in bed with the congloms.

Let me know when you can stream cbs.com content, Craig, on your AppleTV, iPad,
or iPhone.
