HDTV is overrated by a large margin.

I got myself an HDTV, and I have to say that it's not all that wonderful. The component cables are really expensive if you want high quality stuff, the color red is horribly rendered in all modes, the picture can often times have a screen of vertical lines running through it due to the innate nature of the projection, and if you're running something that does not support 480p or higher...the picture looks plain god awful with excessive blurs, static, lack of solidity to images, and an unstable contrast.

Think twice about buying these things.

There's no point in buying an HDTV if you're not going to watch HD content.
