PCTV Deluxe Take Control Of Your TV! One of the problems that the eventually coming Convergence is supposed to resolve is whether you put your computer on your TV screen or your TV on your computer screen. So far, attempts at the former have been rather half-baked and, quite honestly, get in the way of your TV watching. On the other hand, Pinnacles (www.pinnaclesys.com) new PCTV Deluxe has to be one of the most empowering programs aroundor at least it sure feels like it. Imagine dropping your TV screen into a sizeable window on your desktop and keeping an eye on the news or whatever your fave is. Thats really cool. Further, imagine recording the show at the same time and doing instant replays while it continues to track, just like a Tivo. Thats even better. Finally, consider that you can capture anything thats happening on your TV, from live to VCR to DVD and stick it into your movies or video e-mail, and youve got something powerful and useful, indeed. We got the little blue PCTV Deluxe USB plug-in unit and had it up and running just as the Challenger disaster came on the news. It was both frightening and awesome. A click of the mouse downloaded historic footage that would be utterly unavailable otherwise, without paying the networks through the nose for it. The world was in the palm of our handsin fact, putty in our hands for future editing, compiling, and archiving. It was, in a way, the same feeling as discovering the Internet. A vast resource was suddenly dropped right at the door, at our commandnot just to watch, but to play with it as we pleased.
