    Until that problem is resolved, I'm just going to get a standard definition wide screen tv with component input...
    lag is non-existent, or pretty much non-existent.
    can't go wrong.

    as i said, there are games where a single frame of lag can make a difference, if there is more than 0 frames of delay, thats too much for me. :)

    Why would there be lag in SDTV mode?

    because it still has to scale the image.

    No, It doesn't - A CRT can display at any of a number of resolutions - Its simply a case of adjusting the electron gun to fire at fewer/more positions, or having it fire the same coloured pixel multiple times (e.g. native res of 1600x1200, for 800x600 each pixel will be fired 4 times to the display). Thats why theres the clunky sound and the screen blanks when resolution is changed

    That's what I thought. I have never experienced lag in any games in either SDTV or HDTV mode on a CRT. It is an upscaling time delay issue on some LCD and Plasma screens due to the process the chips in the TV have to implement to rescale the image to fit the screen resolution, but that is not true of CRTs.

    This site: http://hdtvlag.googlepages.com/ourtest is rather interesting.

    Apparently, if you run a 4:3 in stretched 16:9 mode on a CRT there will be some lag however.

    all the games as of now.



    about 20 or so have been added, and also almost all of my NES games now have dust covers.

    here's a high quality picture, but i've added quite a bit of games and made it more organized



    took this morning with my camera phone, i'm adding more tommorow as I venture to a retro/import shop in Seattle I am particularly fond of. ^_^

    Very cool, I need a shelf like that.
    On the TV thing, you could do what I used to do until my TV died, I got a HDTV for 350, and kept the old TV. Since the LCD is small you could find somewhere for it and leave that SD where it is. But since you don't have a 360 or anything your prolly fine for now.

    I wish I still had a TV like yours. i'm playing Super Metroid on my HDTV with S video, and its alright, but I would really like a regular TV. If I had some monies I'd get an LCD wide 480p LCd to hang on my wall!
