Well as far as audio goes I really can't tell that BIG of a difference. Say between a 1080p video viewed on a 120hz set vs a 240hz set would be something I probably wouldn't be able to tell apart. Now say a 480i SD picture vs a 720p picture it would be like night and day.

Same with audio... a 64 kbps MP3 vs a 320 kbps MP3 I will notice a BIG difference.

Take same said 320 kbps and compare vs a master recording and I wouldn't notice the difference at all.


As far as XP goes I liked XP. Don't get me wrong I would choose windows 7 over XP but there are days when I miss good ole XP. It did a fine job.

I know of one reverse situation :D
I tried Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 64bit on my laptop and got absolutely sick of it within 3 weeks. I don't think I'll ever try Ubuntu again. Server or other task where I don't actually "use" it? Sure. Otherwise its a horrible, horrible piece of crap. And yet, Ubuntu is the best that Linux has to offer in regard to usability. :roll:

Under what situation do you miss XP??

Got an ASUS BR-04B2T BD-ROM drive from Fry's for $20 AR :P

It was advertised on sale for 60 - 30 rebate but the rebate turned out to be a 40, so woot.

I'm not keeping it in one of my computers though, dad can make much more use of it.
