I for one would welcome any terminology that did not owe allegiance to
multi-image slide shows using audio and video (know for a long time as
multi-media) or vast conglomerates of broadcast-newspaper-radio chains (among
the biggest: MultiMedia, located I believe in the southwest US).

And I think we are a small enough group that we could stand for a year catering
to sequential or non-sequential _poly_media messages.  Most users of
interactive video will have a passing interest in _poly_media affairs.

Finally, I have seen the NEC Cowboy.  I have not played with it yet [the owner
wouldn't let me! :-(  ]

It looks much like a standard vcr, with a few (!) extra connectors.  More when
I have had my hands on it, with some _real_ times on tape handling.
