I agree, it works perfectly well as a digital input to analog equipment solution. I have still never had a cable box in the last 30 years, just tivo or straight analog.
I'd upgrade to a nice LCD widescreen, but then I'd need a new entertainment center. Then the surround sound is only DTS, I'd have to have 5.1 or better, and then the speakers.... next thing you'd know I'd have to replace my turn table and stop playing albumns. Yes, vinyl, it happens, not often, but it happens. The computer gets the tech upgrades, currently sporting a 23" widescreen with a 2048 x 1052 resolution.
