Scientific-Atlanta Wants to Game

Scientific-Atlanta, maker of cable TV set-top boxes, wants to throw its hat in the ring vs. the big boys Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo. Good luck to them especially with their recent PVR February 29th bug woes. Scientific-Atlanta chief executive James McDonald, speaking at an investor conference in Dana Point, California, said developers are already building games for its Explorer series of set-top boxes. But he gave no timetable for when such a device might be available.
