Would people stop comparing up-converting DVD players to Blu-ray? Up-converting doesn't magically turn your low-quality DVDs into Blu-Ray quality movies. All it does is turn crap into slightly better looking crap. That is all.
Up-converting does make a big difference for me. Of course it might have to do with having an Oppo Player, i'm not sure. I played back a movie on an old Philips player and then the Oppo and the difference is huge. This is on a 46" Sony though through DVI/HDMI.
The money is better spent on an Oppo player with a good chipset.
The Chromebooks are here, starting with Samsung's Series 5, a cute little number that promises instant-on access, 3G connectivity, and long enough battery life to web surf with the best of 'em.
