    Haha. I've seen a company try to implement this. They encountered a problem - hundreds of software developers couldn't run their own code.

    You may be interested to read this story about a family that followed their GPS and got stuck for three nights. For our American friends - driving Brisbane to Perth is similar distance as Seattle to New York. A ute is like a pickup truck.

    green computing hardware video acceleration is the present and the future

    It is great to fully utilise hardware that you have now, but H.264, DivX, and WMV hardware acceleration is not the future. Why lockdown hardware to accelerate a specific video coding format that will change in the future? Instead, if the engineering effort is spent making the CPU & video operations faster (and smaller die size, more cores, lower power requirements) then all applications benefit, not just H.264, DivX, and WMV video playback. The hardware industry is taking this concept further, investing heavily in CPU & video on the one chip.
