One of the applications of the Explorer 2000 is a cable box. However the unit is a Digital Home Communications Terminal and has many different application medias. So tehcnically yes.

I’m all for a .EXE on a standard PC. Pardon my lack of knowledge but what would supply the information feed? And what Version of Star are you looking to modify to a .EXE?
