LOS ANGELES, Jan. 18, 2005 – Intel Corporation and Revelations
Entertainment, a partnership between Morgan Freeman and producer Lori
McCreary, announced today the Intel-Revelations Open House, an
innovative technology venue where industry professionals can see and
prepare for the next revolution to affect the motion picture industry —
the emergence of the digital home.

The Open House, or digital home showcase, is the latest result of the
collaboration between Intel and Revelations and is designed to educate
the industry about the impact of technology on entertainment, as well as
explore new business opportunities for secure content distribution. The
Open House, located at Revelations offices in Santa Monica, was also
created to demonstrate the latest in home entertainment technology and
to provide an environment for critical discussions regarding the
business issues and opportunities this technology creates.

What does Open House mean? Does that mean I can go there? I'm afraid to
go there, I might steal that box! I love to steal!!
