My System: Various digiboxes, broken Nokia 9800S, numerous analogue boxes. My lovely little lappy, HP Omnibook 6100

I don't have an HD source for my TV (yet!) but when I went round to my friend's house last week I really couldn't see a huge improvement between the HD channels and their SD equivalents. I could just about - I think - see an improvement between the two Luxe channels but nothing startling.

And yet, when I've been in France and looked t soome of the demos in Carrefour or Auchan I can see wonderful detail when they are playing a (presumably) Bluray disc.

Could it be because the disc was outputing 1080p and most TV HD is 720P?

As I get older I find myself thinking about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.
