TV looks nice. I bought a 20" Advent awhile back and the glare from light coming through the window is almost non-existant. I payed $172 (after tax) but it wasnt HD-ready. If I had the extra 30 I coulda got the 27".

Sweet sounds good. The thing I really like is the 3 S-video inputs and the progressive-scan conversion and the fact its HDTV for its cheap price. I guess ill buy it.

Looks nice. We used to ahve a pair of advent speakers and they were NICE. great sound but a friend was over one day and picked one of them and the woofer broke. I was pissed but got over it and threw them out. ;)
coulda fixed them, actually i should have, but it wasn't really worth all the trouble.

There is provision of progressive scan, yet no presence of component video inputs?

Minimum specs requirements for 720
Windows XP
Windows Media Player 9 Series
2.4 GHz processor or equivalent
384 MB of RAM
64 MB video card
1024 x 768 screen resolution
16-bit sound card
Speakers
For 1080
Windows XP
Windows Media Player 9 Series
DirectX 9.0
3.0 GHz processor or equivalent
512 MB of RAM
128 MB video card
1920 x 1440 screen resolution
24-bit 96 kHz multichannel sound card
5.1 surround sound speaker system
Im below min specs for cpu (2200+) but it runs fine except for a little lag every 10-15 sec. Im about to try a 1080. I had tried the robotics one and it didnt go so smoothly but you still tell the graphics were awesome.
