Gee, you could even hook up an apple II to the TV window.

But seriously folks...

How about getting the close caption text also.  It would be neat to get 
transcripts of the news and such (I know it isn't exact word for word).  Is
there anything like this available?  RS232 would be ok...

I wonder.  If it could handle the info at the bottom of the screen you could
download/broadcast new sofware or news reports.
