From: "Scott E. Preece" <preece@predator.urbana.mcd.mot.com> To ask a question I asked before, do you think it offensive (in the sense that started this discussion) that TV programs display notices at the beginning saying they are in color and/or have stereo sound and/or closed-captioning, even though some people lack the technology to enjoy those features? Do they tell me that to view this the best way, I have to switch to a Sony 19", made 1995 or later? No... Is it still viewable or hearable with an old B/W TV with mono sound? Most probably, and in that case, I would just ignore it, *unless* it was place right in the middle of my screen (which would be very annoying). There is a sign for TV programs in stereo, at least here in Sweden. It's a small OO in yellow color, up in the right corner. It's very discrete, and I don't mind it at all. -- R Levitte, Levitte Programming; Spannvägen 38, I; S-161 43 Bromma; SWEDEN Tel: +46-8-26 52 47; No fax right now PGP key fingerprint = A6 96 C0 34 3A 96 AA 6C B0 D5 9A DF D2 E9 9C 65 Check http://www.lp.se/~levitte for my public key. bastard@bofh.se
