Well, how about this- in order to install all these new goodies I will need some time. I am loading the kscape up as we speak (I have 500 dvds in it so far- I have another 200 or so to go- and thats not including TV shows or music videos. I think I will hold off on these except for the really critical ones like Band of Brothers, which is one of the best things I've ever seen).

I dont get the screen until the end of December and the PJ will be built then but it wont get here until mid Jan. I have to reconfigure my front wall and that requires some paint work as well.

When this all gets setup, say by late January, I will go out and get a HD DVD player and a few movies and Ill give a report. Fair enough?

Btw- the PJ (runco VX22) is one of these ones modified to do 2.35:1 with a moving anamorphic lens for the 2.35:1 content and the PJ is 3 chip DLP 1920x1080. So if there is anyone who should want this to succeed its me.

The screen is a stuart cinecurve masking 2.40:1 as I have been advised that this will be fairly easy to support if you have a 2.35:1 setup.

If I fall in love with the format(s) I will then get an analog card for the processor. Given the relatively low cost of the players I see little risk to me to give it a test.

btw- does anyone want a MiniDisc recorder/Player or a Panasonic gen 1 HDTV STB with DVHS over firewire? wink

best regards,
Jerry
