But I do own a 21" lcd computer monitor. If I set it at 1280x720 and playback a wmv 720p file, and then play a dvd with one of the best players on the market, Theater Trek, the dvd looks way lower in not only resolution and clarity, but in color accuracy and saturation, and its apparent even when viewed from 7-8 feet away! Dont mean to be insulting, at all, but are you positive you have everything set up correctly? HDDVD, literally, set a whole new bench-mark for my system (and I was a long time hdtv subscriber before i ever got a hddvd player), so Im shocked when someone says they dont see a diffence between a next gen format and dvd, regardless of the display size or type they might have.
Well aren't you awesome? I wish I had a room large enough to justify a 100" projector screen.

I don't know what he's talking about. I have one big 56" and two 30" CRT hdtv's, and the difference between DVD and HD-DVD on the 30" is night and day. I think its probably that Poloriod LCD.
