    Guys,
    when you watch DVD movies on your 1680x1050, do they look very pixelated?

    How much distance is desirable to not advertise the quality decrease?

    Since DVDs are usually at 720x(something), I would expect some artifacts during the playing.

    I know the HD content is gonna change things, but the 6615WD doesn't include an HD optical reader.



    Regards,
    Fabio

    I sounds like you have the same concerns that i had.
    For me its not a problem, i think dvd's look great.
    I bought a 6015 for my girlfriends parents, but infortunatly i forgot to compare the two when watching a dvd.

    I dont know if the gfx card does something to the picture quality, but i dont get annoyed by insane pixelation.

    Hopefully in the future, zepto will offer a HD drive.
    I would be cool if it was a combi BR/HDDVD reader, and normal dvd/cd writer.
    But i doubt it :)

    Cheers
