    I have a coworker who claims that she can't see a difference between std def and her new 1080p. My money says that her's is not set up right. Size of the screen, distance away, set-up and the source would all make a big difference though.

    She wasn't. Don't laugh. Even after I explained this to my dad countless times, he still puts on the old std def. channels.

    This woman at least caught on to that part, but something must be wrong if she still can't tell.

    Does he say to you, "I am on the HD channel. See the HD in the corner of the screen?"
