It is just amazing what HDTV shows. We had a 40 inch TV tube Sony that was as good as any standard def TV could be. Watching F1 we could hear the announcers talk abould seeing a flat spot on the tires or other detail that just was not there for us. Now at full HD on the big screen we can clearly see that flat spot of the tires.
It is just scary how much makeup the national news anchors wear. Scott Pelley of the CBS news has family in Oklahoma. The local TV station met him at the airport and asked him some questions. What a difference in appearance. I will say he has lots of "character" in his face.
