            You bought a TV and you don't know what model it is?
            It is a year and a half old, I am not in the habit of remembering every 20 diget model number that happens to appear on my electronics.


            Do you know what kind of car you drive, or what city you live in?
            Sure I do, a Volkswagon Jetta. But just like I can't tell you the model of my 51" Samsung DLP television, I also can't tell you my VW's VIN off the top of my head.

              It's a year and a half old and you think it's a 1080p?

              I say you're wrong.

                Actually it says 1080i.

                  There you go. The real resolution is probably in the 1280x720 range, not 1080p by a longshot.

                    You mis-spelt 'toy guitar'. Shame to ruin a nice photo with it. :shrug:

                      Would you rather I include my real guitar in the picture next time?

                        Very pretty. But why so blurry? And the light looks weird.

                          The picture doesn't do it justice really. Gears is the best looking game I've ever played.

                          But yeah, the lighting in the game is a bit weird in places.

                            Depth of field effect in the game + mix of fluorescent and natural lighting with the digicam.

                              Did you ever use the included component HD cables? IMO, the text seems a little blurry and I'm wondering if this is partially due to the component cables. I'm still messing around with the settings (my remote, or its batteries, are faulty, so that takes some time). I'm just wondering what kind of improvement you noticed, assuming you had experience with both? Also, is your VGA cable plugged directly into the TV?
                              Update:

                              XBox VGA cable: After plugging these in (along with Toslink) I noticed a huge improvement in the image, especially text. I think this is not just because I switched from component to VGA, but the connection is now directly Xbox -> TV. Xbox Dashboard looks great, games look great. Still tweaking colors, but this thing has a solid image.

                              HD-DVD Drive: Plugged this in and put in King Kong (incl.). Fantastic image. I switched Netflix to HD-DVD; first one I'll get is The Departed; also have Planet Earth for when that comes out. Also nice that the drive will upconvert regular DVDs, although I haven't tried this yet.


                              The only complaint I have is that I think there is a problem with the TV's IR or however it communicates with the remote. Neither the Westinghouse or 360 Remote will work with it.

                                A telecaster would have looked better.
