I've been hearing for sometime about Tandy's new multimedia box, that it
would run a simplified version of Windows that would be capable of running
MPC CDs.  I glanced one over today, and it looks to me like it runs software
that, well, maybe not exactly propietary, but it doesn't look like it would
be runnable elsewhere, nor does it look like it can run MPC stuff.  

So does anyone know what the deal with this is?

Jonathan
