I don't want it to stop! The Kipnis Studios is right--isn't getting as close to real life the point. I say don't stop until watching movies is like opening a door or peeking through a window, a very clean window.

Here, Here!

Don't settle for anything less - and in a little while, video games are going to be just like watching a movie, and Movies & Television will be just like looking out an open set of bay doors!

Well, that wouldn't work for me on so many levels.....

First, I NEED all the new goodies.

Second, what good is my opinion if it's based on my experience with seven year old equipment. By that logic, I should now just be considering upgrading to a progressive scan DVD player. Sorry wes, I'll stay current and fight the battles on the front lines, it's just how I roll!
