Doubtful. The PS3 definitely plays Blu-ray (that's the primary reason I have my PS3--one or two games here and there, but its Blu-ray abilities, plus the upconversion of standard def DVD's to 1080 quickly made it my player of choice), but no matter how good the source material or the player, you're still at the mercy of the monitor you're watching it on. It'd probably look a little better than it did before, but it's not gonna "pop" the way Salon is crowing about. -- -- Ben Scripps [email protected] -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
