Most cable TV scrambling systems simply suppress or otherwise confuse
the synch and may invert the color in the composite video signal. 
Presumebably, since the NeXT Dimension can do real-time video digital
computations, it could perform real-time descrambling quite easily.

Would this make it the most expensive descrambling "black box" that one
can purchase?
