    My main for the purchase is to watch HD content (Itunes, YouTube, NetFlix streaming) on my HDTV. The picture quality is great, but I'm getting choppy playback on almost all sources (Itunes, Hulu, Netflix). Not sure why this is happening. I don't think processing power, or memory should be an issue. Anyone else experiencing this? Any help?

    Make sure you update the video drivers especially. Sounds like you were using just the default windows drivers if you haven't installed anything else.

    version 10.5 is the latest for Ati drivers, by the way.
