RE: DVI and a plasma

I second the DVI - HDMI cable. I used one with an older DVD player that offered DVI out.

I could not tell the difference from a true HDMI connection on the 720p Sony plasma I was running at the time. The main difference is that the HDMI has audio on it, where the DVI does not. You will need to make other plans for taking the sound to your receiver, or even to the TV.

It is also eye opening to see what resolution a 720 or 1080 monitor actually runs at. Its much lower than a quality computer monitor nowadays, that might be half or less the size of the TV monitor.
