To you people getting HD.
HD is superb, - no doubts about it. BUT, to get the best picture on your new sets, the TV must be set up to it's optimum setting. Settings are everything.
Nor is it as easy as you might think. You have a combination of Backlight, Brightness, Contrast and Colour to adjust. Lot's more picture enhancers, such as black stretch, contrast enhancer, Gamma etc, as well. The possible combinations there are immense. Add to that, Sharpness and colour tints/tones and you will see there is a great deal more, to setting up a LCD TV, than there is with a CRT.
Set the TV badly and High Definition wont look as good as it should.
