Apple TV failed or will fail due to being completely locked down to just iTunes with nothing else like a web browser, tv tuning functionality, or anything else. From what I've read about Google TV is it will pretty much conjoin everything into one system: Watching your subscription tv services, web video, web browsing, and more. All with a close focus on the web aspect. -- I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources. Breathing and heart beat taxes their whole system, all of their brain cells wasted on life support.-two bit brains, and the second bit is wasted on parity! ~head_spaz

What are you talking about?.....I'm still using my bad ass Webtv unit, lol. Yea it's old and you can't do much on it but you can't beat it when you get the subscription for free when you get cheap ($12) msn dial up service.
