Know what deeply saddens me? When I go to peoples’ houses and they have a huge, fancy widescreen HDTV, and they’ve got a 4×3 picture stretched to fit their 16:9 display, and they’re using a standard $5 yellow RCA cable instead of component video or HDMI. *Sigh* Granted, I watched the Super Bowl at a friend’s house, and he had everything right — HD, correct aspect ratio, correct cables, sound, et cetera. But it’s no use telling some people when their audio/video components aren’t optimized. When I leave, they would say, “Oh, Matt told me to do something with my TV cables, but I forget now. Oh well.”
