Cool! Nice to have to learn a British slang term. Like it
I admit to having read LOTR trilogy + Hobbit + Silamarion about three times through (first time in the sixties --- showing my age  ). And I have all the extended edition LOTR DVDs with having to re-view each time I do a major sound or video upgrade. Now I'll have to re-purchase all of them again to get the hi def DVD versions, sigh!

It comes from the favoured waterproof apparell of people who stand on the edge of airfields jotting down plane numbers or platforms doing likewise for trains. They broadly resemble the archetypal computer nerd but with a touch more of an outdoor complexion.
As per usual, we're behind in Blighty. I've had HDTV for 4 days and am still recording anything that moves just to sit and watch, slack jawed at the detail. There are plusses and a few small minuses against the upscaled output from my DVD-3910, but what I really want to know is.....How good is HD-DVD?
I'm viewing on a Screenplay 7205 onto a fixed 92" screen and have found HD to be a quantum leap. Most people over here seem to think a 42" plasma or 50"RPTV is big and they seem underwhelmed by the experience. I think the PJ which has four times the viewing area, but is viewed at much the same distance is a little bit more of a magnifying glass as to the differences. I'd be interested to hear yours, or anybody elses, thoughts.
