And for the other party, who whines "There's no difference in
hi-def--Just buy yourself a progressive player!"...yeah, there's a
difference:

Best Buy had their Blu-Ray displays up (I'd like to see Batman Begins
playing on an HD, but most store chains have them hidden at some back
corner if at all), and playing the Disney promo disk of "Chicken Little"--
And if a Samsung screen/player could make one of the most hideous and
nightmarishly gawdawful movies in the history of recorded cinema look
downright AMAZING 0_0 , there must be something to the new gizmos.
