We finally upgraded the old TV in our living room - replacing the standard def 36" with an HD LCD screen. There's one interesting problem we ran into: the connectivity expected by the TV is different than the mass of cables we had been using for the old TV. We were using mostly S-Video and composite cables; the new TV only has one input source for that. It has three HDMI inputs and 2 component cable inputs though, and i've got those on order (as I mentioned the other day, you really, really don't want to buy those retail). The good news is, I do have the old ReplayTV hooked up and working (yes, it's a relic of a bygone era :) ), and the new Comcast DVR is humming along as well. Picture quality will improve when I get the new cables, but it's a step up from the old standard def model.

Oh, and just for fun - here's a shot of the now obsolescent mass of cables - I'll be adding to that pile as the set of swap in/swap out composite cables get replaced...
