[SIZE=2]The main thing I guess I'll add also is the exact thought of this point made in both articles. It hit's the hardest I guess...

Ohh God... You had to bring up DivX! Ugg.. I can't remember how many time I heard: "I don't care what kind of hardware you have, you can not tell the difference between DivX & DVD!" or all the people useing computers with DivX librarys on them. The supposed secure DVD format that people...

Honestley though.... I don't really understand why they bother to try to protect all that stuff. It is going to get out anyhow... All they are doing is screwing the honest people and making them possibly buy new/more equipment. The hackerz WILL eventually get through any protection you come up...

Actually, it looks like the text is all that is wrong. But the links are there. But reversed it seems. hehe.

Hey Peter, You posted the same link 2x. I believe the first link is not the one you wanted there. Just FYI...

Mark, I agree about being burn in paranoid. But on a tube, you don't have to be that paranoid. But hey, if it was too bright for your personal tastes anyhow... :) Did the color problems get any better after leaving the power off? Just curious.

This is a test... Another test... Bla bla bla...

Testing...

Did you try unplugging the TV over night? Maybe you brushed by a powerful magnet source when you moved it and it needs to Degauss. Some TVs do that when power is removed from them. Though you'd think they'd just put in a Degauss button like most computer monitors now-a-days. :rolleyes Anyhow...

Michael, I understand. LOL Ohhh do I understand.... However, lately, we have been playing a lot more PS2 and think we have only watched 2 DVDs this week. Ugg. It still seems that I either need to get the 40, or keep my 27 around for gaming/some cable channels that never take off their darn...

Steve, Thank you! That definatly clears up some of my questions! :D I am picky too! I saw the arced bars on the Sony and tweakability of the Toshiba. (and I have the Toshiba service codes as well :) ) Though I saw a well setup Sony 40 as well and it was extremely nice! I was leaning tward...

Anything?

Well? Anyone?

I have an earlier Onkyo 676 (5.1) and an even older stereo model as well. The stereo unit has run flawless for over 8 years and the 676 is superb! If I was looking for a new unit, Onkyo or Denon would be the first ones I would even consider. And I always seem to lean to the Onkyo. The 676 and...

AllenD, Ahhh! That clears up some thoughts. However... I have a new quandary over another of your statements, actually, I would just like further clarification: In the same quote I used before, you stated if I already had a non-progressive DVD unit, go HD, etc... My question here is, how...

Todd and I are still waiting for a responce to some questions. Why did AllenD state the 40 is more susceptible to burn in. (if it's true) and what are those acronyms and the HD players? Also, I'd like this paragraph translated into english please:

HD STB? PDVDP? You lost me there... I do already have a non-progressive DVD player, a couple in fact, but I plan on getting a progressive one. I never heard of a HD DVD player as far as more resolution, better frames vs progressive scan. You lost me with that paragraph... Please explain. :)...

Steve, Thanks for that information! Great stuff... The Toshiba's Theater modes are: Normal, Full, Theater mode 1, Theater mode 2 and Theater mode 3. I assume the 3 modes are for different aspect ratios from letterbox to anamorphic. (sp) I truly fell in love with the 50" Toshiba RPTV. But am...

Thanks for the reply Jack! :) The XBR is what my wife is leading twards also. But yes, it's near 350 lbs does pose some issues... (DELIVERY?!? hehe) One question though, on the Toshiba, those 3 theater modes, do they take the picture out of OAR? or just some sort of minor zoom effect?

Ok, Being an aivid home theater dreamer, I have done what I can in the space that I have. (apartment) I have the surround system all finished and it kicks to no end. But my video is behind... Currently I have a "Top of the Line" 27" TV with a standard Toshiba DVD player. I want to upgrade...
