  My parents have Comcast analog cable to go with their Sony 40" XBR LCD TV. My wife and I have Dish Network, to go with a regular KDL-46S2000 LCD TV. I have to warn that regular 4:3 programming, which is what the vast majority of channels is, is big and blurry. Your digital cable box may allow you to warp the ratio, so that you can fit a 4:3 into the entire 16:9 screen.

  I have not had analog cable in my house, so I do not know how different, if at all, it is from non-HD digital channels. Another weird thing is, my parents can get some HD feed from analog cable, but those channels (FOX, CBS, ABC) are different from my HD channels (TNT, Discovery, HDNet, ESPN).

  My parents do complain that their analog cable often has "ghosts." Maybe I'm just imagining things, but it seems as though lip-synch error is worse at my place. I dunno, I'll have to let the others chime in on the analog cable vs. non-HD digital cable issue.

    I'll drop by a few shop and check things out and I'll get them to put it on the reg. channels and see how things look.
    
    Thanks Ken
