    Budget HD-DVD player en route...

    That's the downside, definitely, but I am assuming most people who are looking for a budget player will not have a 1080p television, though I could be wrong. I regret not getting a better TV last January. I wound up with a 720p TV, without realizing that 1080p was going to explode so quickly, heh.

    What Does It Take To Produce HD Content?

    You can make HD home content no problem. There are many camcorders available that can record at 1080p, though I've never used one myself. It's an entirely different story getting 720p broadcasts to your cable TV though.

    Cooler Master X-Craft 350 HD Enclosure

    Could be that the drive needs to be formatted. I'd plug it back into the PC and if you don't need what's on it, just format to FAT32 or NTFS, then re-install it into the enclosure and see if it picks up on it.

    Vista SP1 Due in 2008

    From our news: I try to like Vista, I really do, but the more I use it, the more I want to throw the computer.
