Smart TV - French
French language version of this program. Convergence was the buzz word of 1995 as analysts predicted the computer and the television set would merge into one box. One aspect of this convergence was the so-called Smart TV. This program demonstrates some examples including the Malachi board which lets you download software into your PC using a standard broadcast signal (not a cable modem), Microware's DAVID (Digital Audio Video Interactive Decoder), HP's Kayak set top box, Philips' DET100 set top box, the Stellar set top box, DIVICOM's set top box, and Oracle's video authoring tools. Originally broadcast in October 1995.
