Cowboy - yeehah!
Watching some of the USTA tennis match, and they have the mens game on. It's obviously in 16:9 format, and I have an older proj TV that is 4:3(old standard), it looks horrible. I've also noticed that all NFL games on Thur night were letterboxed and looked reasonable but much of the text info boxes to the side are blocked out.
Yes, I know the difference in video quality avail, and the different video standards, including interlacing and progressive. Doesn't help that I have a good working 60" 4:3 TV that I don't want to get rid of. It was made in the US, has a great picture, and good sound, I take care of it and clean the mirror at least once a year.
Sigh, I'm just an old fart with first world problems. And get off my lawn!
<haha! I just flipped over to PGA golf and it looks like that's still in 4:3 for the old farts among us that watch the little white ball fly around.>
