Well, my new TV arrived yesterday afternoon, so after work, church, and getting Jenna to sleep, I finally got to hook it up.  The first thing I did was fire up the XBox360.  The dashboard just about knocked me across the room.  It is breathtakingly beautiful.  I fired up Halo 2 to check for video lag (for which I had to send my previous set back if you recall).  I was pleased to find minimal lag "out of the box".  A quick jaunt through the menus revealed "game mode", which eliminated the lag altogether (or at least to a point indistiguishable from my previous lag-free CRT set).

So I'm really looking forward to the HD Olympics coverage this year.  I hope it doesn't suck like it did 2 years ago for the summer games.  We'll see.

All said and done, I couldn't be more pleased.  We see what little annoyances I can find in a week.  I'm pretty picky.
