I have an HDTV setup and it is like nothing you have ever seen. If you watch TV and have access to HD in your area(either from cable or over the air with an antenna like I have) you should really look into it. Take a look out of an open window at your backyard, that is how HDTV looks. The quality of the picture can't really be described to anyone who has not seen it. It is better than any DVD or computer monitor you have ever seen.

Its said to be practically life-like. And with HDTV you won't need an antenna for crystal clear reception. Either you'll either get the picture perfectly the first time you turn on the TV or you won't get it at all. Right now its in its infancy and few TV stations broadcast in digital - upgrades are expensive and the networks will switch over once the current analog equipment wears out. But you're right the HDTV era will make us wonder why we had to put up with analog TV for such a long time.
