Wow, that's an excellent article! I haven't thought about it in this way before. That's a pretty simple formula for figuring out what you think "big" is. Yeah, erring on the side of big is good, but if you get motion sick, like Wayde there, you might want to go to the slightly smaller size...

I'll be keeping my HD DVD player, and the movies... And trying to suck down as many cheap titles as I can. It's virtually the same movie experience on either side, so I might as well use what I have and horde what I can if it's cheap. I have a PoS3 for BD movies. I have less of those right...

I wonder how much Sony paid them to do this. :D Now, will netflix add the option for "I prefer BD 1.0 because my player won't work with 2.0 discs".

DVI Gear is the HDMIzzle I personally have been using the SHR version of the 10 meter DVI Gear cable in my wall. http://store.audioholics.com/product/1223/120/dvigear-10m-hdmi-super-high-resolution-copper-cable This thing has been rock solid. I recently tried to replace it, as I needed...

Forgive my error... I am certain that I had read that the A35 was the only unit to support 24p and deep color. However, I did just check the Toshiba web site, and the two items you listed are correct, according to the specifications. I'll see if I can get my hands on an A30 in the next day or...

There are a lot of things that rattle that shouldn't. For example, my "quiet" bathroom fans rattle terribly. They are just crap. I stuck some felt pads on the part covering the light bulb to stop it. My dehumidifier for my basement rattles, so I jammed in some cardboard around a few edges...

Is it possible to adjust the bass response somewhere in the menu to lessen the rattling sound? I mean, if the whole TV is resonating and it's not just some loose part in there, this might be the only way to help, other than using an external sound system. *shrug*

Darn, I am not eligible for the coupon, but I just have to answer these questions... YES, I have an XBox 360, a Wii, and a PS3 all hooked up to my home theater system right now. It is a front projection system, and I am totally spoiled. (Panasonic AE2000u and a Carada 106" screen) I...

I'd say the lag is pretty much non-existent... There is always some amount of lag time with the new digital technology, and it's hard to say what is and isn't acceptable. I did a comparison of some 24" LCD monitors a while back because I was personally seeking a computer monitor that had good...

Well, I bought one. I have been using it for a couple of weeks now, and I like it better than the AX100u that I just replaced. The lag time seems acceptable for gaming, and the blacks are darker, and the color seems more accurate. Of course, I haven't measured anything directly. But I am...

Very cool blog so far. I wonder what the computer guy will end up doing for the HTPC? *grin* I am an occasional Anandtech.com reader, so this one will be particularly interesting for me to follow.

Btw, I noticed that the cheapo Insignia system is on sale for $80 this week at Best Buy...

There are a few more First Look articles on HTIBs coming in the next week or so. Sorry I didn't see this post until tonight. If you were getting it for Christmas, I guess my input isn't valid now. But, if it's an anytime kind of purchase, then I'll have some more options for you to see. A...

Well, my hope is that most people will read the article so they can see how they are being convinced that the system is good, even before they know anything about it. I think my statements in the first paragraph would lead someone to continue reading so they know the true intent. BTW, in my...

If you rent it, you'll surely have enough time to play through the single player mode. However, if you get wrapped up in the online play, then you'll really want to have your own copy. The RPG elements add that extra level of motivation to keep you playing online. So, depending on the...

It is really nice to have the game on a console. I am not trying to make you all run out and buy a 360, but the ease of use is the kicker for me. Of course, there are several 360 versions out this Christmas. If you go for the cheaper unit with the HD, it's $350, and that comes with two...

Has anyone here had a chance to use the new panny 1080p unit? http://www.panasonic.com/business/projectors/ae2000/index.asp I am really thinking about buying one, but I am a big gamer, and I don't want anything that lags too much. I know the 200u (720p model) has a game mode that is...

I'd like to do a seven drive raid5 array with 20gb hard drives. Just kind of glue them all together on the side of my 360 there. It would be fantastic! That would give me the same amount of space as the single 120gb, of course, but it would be fault tolerant and probably really fast! Hmmm...

My office just recently purchased the Network version of this same projector. I was really quite surprised at how well it works. The menu system resembles that of my Panasonic AX-100U and it can scale down from high res computer screens pretty good. My boss often likes to leave his screen at...
