    Ken, think of a video images as having a freqency response just like audio has. Have a look at the frequency sweep (the one with thinner and thinner lines to the right) on AVIA or VE. The thick, slow gradients on the left are low frequencies, the 1 pixel thin lines are the highest possible...

    Note that i am not saying most people here will actually see a difference when they buy this SB edition. But if the difference is not as apparent as on my system or on the shots above, you still know that you bought a superior version that, although currently limited by your equipment, will...
