Thanks for the info.
I have Time Warner cable with an Explorer 8000 box that does HD with DVR. They currently offer 15 HD channels (up from 3 when I bought the new system - which is why we didn't feel the need to get the HD going right away). On the HD channels with the component video hookup the picture is incredible - on ESPNHD last night I could make out details on the fans in the stands at the game while they were showing play on the field. Of course, when I got it hooked up and was excited about the quality of the picture, I called my wife to come see it and as soon as she walked in the room a player that was not the main focus of the screen dropped an "f-bomb" and she says "So we got HDTV so we can see THAT?". It was pretty funny. We have had good luck with the Time Warner DVR on our other TV so I'm hoping this one will work out well. I'm still not sure if my box records in HD - I'll try it out soon. Thanks again for the info.
