Intel and Tivo Partner Up

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the viiva-la-tivo dept.

yapplejax writes "Intel and Tivo are partnering on a PC platform in hopes to standardize the platform. From the Associated Press: 'The goal of the Viiv label, he said, is to avoid consumer confusion and questions over interoperability. It also will ensure the products will work when the PC is being controlled from a distance via a remote control.'"

    intel is not talking about that for obvious reasons (obvious to anyone who follows apple, annyway)

    actually the article disscusses this, or in other words..

    you didn't RTFA! nya nya nya!

    "Corbett declined to comment on whether Apple Computer Inc. is participating in Viiv. Earlier this year, Apple announced that it would start using Intel microprocessors in its Macintosh computers, and it also has released entertainment PC-like software for its latest iMacs."

    that was a direct quote from the article you didn't bother to read, for shame!
