Microsoft and partners to sell TV set-top boxes

Microsoft and its hardware partners are trying to bridge the divide between home computers and television sets this holiday season with the release of several "media extenders." The IHT reports.

"These television set top boxes will connect wirelessly to computers running the Home Premium or Ultimate flavors of Windows Vista and enable users to use their televisions to watch movies, shows and Internet video that is stored on their computers.

Microsoft was expected to announce the prices and more details about the systems, known as extenders, Thursday at the DigitalLife trade show in New York."
