research:

Quote:
"Toshiba's HD-A2 ($500 as of 2/20/07) can't deliver a 1080p image. Any 1080p-capable movie you watch on it--and that's most every movie available in the HD DVD format--is downgraded to the inferior 1080i high-def mode on its way to your television. "

Most HDTV's at the moment display 720p, which is what that player caters to. And yea the laptop is a freaken great price.

Perhaps you should stop watching carlos mencia.

He's a true piece of shit, and not funny at all.

Oh and I heard that the HD-DVD Add on for 360 is going to drop to 150.00USD and it will come with the first season of Heroes on HD-DVD. Although I only heard this rumor on multiple forums, never from an actual source.

Still, it wouldnt shock me for them to drop the price to 150. I love my HD-DVD add on for 360. Its amazing (and I dont even use HDMI).

1080i looks great. wtfinferior. I hate hearing people say 1080p is sooooo much better. 1080i is still 1920X1080 @ 60 fps. The only difference with 1080p is progressive scan...it doesn't add any more resolution. Properly calibrating the settings on your TV will yield a WAY bigger difference than changing from interlaced to progressive. I have a good 1080P TV and IMO the difference between 1080i and 1080p is 5% if that.

I recently had friends over for a UFC fight in HD, and I showed them the difference between 1080i and 1080p HD DVDs (my TV is well calibrated). Nobody could tell the difference. I barely can.

Anyways I'm going to buy this player for my Mom for Christmas. I brought my 360 over and we watched the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire HD DVD at 1080i (she has a 55" CRT 1080i RPTV). Now she wants an HD player. She has brought it up several times since then.

I like Mexicans haha. Arizona is overrun by illegals. Sure they drive without insurance, get free healthcare, steal stereos from our cars, shoot police and get away with it (deported instead of jailtime), etc...but they are generally friendly people.

They treat American's like kings when you go to Mexico. I love Mexico (going next weekend actually). I also want to learn Spanish.

btw Carlos Mencia is a fucking retard and I hate him.

Mexicans are ok people. Some of them are slobs and they drive me nuts. Considering i can speak spanish, you should hear half the shit they say in their language when a lady walks by.

From what i see. Their rude hardworking alcoholics that apparently like fucking and hitting their wives at the same time.
But not all of them are like that. lol

Ugh whatever.

You know when I first joined ckd people outside of ckd used to think Ilm was this hardcore nazi, but then I met Mikey and was like holy shit this fucker is the most racist piece of shit on this game. I mean all the Mexican slamming and the shit he would say to poor Ruby for being Vegan... those were awful times.

... and Mikey must be boring in bed, there's not like smacking your girlfriend/wife in the ass while hittin' it doggystyle.

Mikey is like that Bigsby dood from the David Chappelle skit. He's black, blind and in the KKK. Thats Mikey irl. Maybe he's more like Uncle Ruckus from the Boondocks. Anyway the point is Mikey hates his own kind and will do anything against his own race just to fit in with the white people. :(
