Personally I'm only interested in the tech from the dorky standpoint of trying to run high performance games and apps on my desktop and streaming them to a UMPC/MID type platform.

Thank you so much! As well as everyone else who helped! I love how everyone is patient here an doesn't get frustrated. I've learned a lot, but even more so I'm highly impressed regarding the level of intelligence possessed by some members of this forum.
