	I have a proposal for Commodore and it's CDTV....

	Commodore, give Digital Creations a call, and see what they think
	about incorporating the DCTV decoder hardware/software into
	the CDTV.

	As CDTV is pointed primarily as a NTSC device, DCTV would be right
	at home in the CDTV, and would give it an AMAZING jump on the
	competetion...  HAM is ok.  but 16 million NTSC colors is FANTASTIC!

	And the way DCTV works, .anim files could be made to playback
	in all 16M colors... full or partial screen... at a reasonable rate.

	After all, DCTV frames are really nothing more than Hi-res/interlace
	16 color IFF images as far as the Amiga hardware is concerned.  DCTV
	would perform all the rest of the magic....

	Other views on this???
