Do you have an HD capable TV?

With the recent study releases showing that the vast majority of this generation of console owners are not aware of the HD capabilities of the Xbox 360 or PS3, it got me thinking. How many of us are taking advantage of, or at least can take advantage of, the HD goodness of this generation?

What better way to find out than a poll!?

Do you own an HD capable TV? By HD I mean 720p, 1080i, or 1080p. You may also add in the text of your reply whether you are currently connected to your set in a manner that permits you to see the HD signal. For example, you may own an HD set and a PS3, but you may not have purchased an HDMI cable yet.

Yes... but the TV has no HDMI input. I caught a "tweener" and it's gonna end up costing me.

I would call in question the bias of this forum for this subject, with regards to the simple fact that a core of the long timers did actually come from a Home theater forum. Given that history the majority of active users are likely of a similar ilk, with perhaps higher than average interest in performance of home theater experiences, and a bias towards such.

Not to say it isnt a fascinating topic, merely that a salt lick might be in order to justify it against this forum.

I have 1 HD tv and plan on purchasing a second.

Yep, 62" Mits DLP (720p) TV... After having a loaner 1080p I'm having the upgrade bug. However I know the answer esp given the fact I have already went down the path of a new receiver.

I checked yes, ever though I'm in between HDTVs right now.

(My 32" Toshiba crapped out, and I'm getting a new one within the year)

yes I do. 55" mitisubishi diamond series I got back in 2002. Temporarily the only HD content is cable TV.

I have used it from the 360. Haven't had a chance to use it for the PS3, but I have the component cable to do so. I have a componet cable for the Wii's 480p widescreen as well.

Nope, and probably won't for another year Guess I'll have to keep beating other players on my 32" SDTV, I don't consider S-Video HD plus my S-Video cable crapped out. It was a Crap-Catz cable, no surprise there

However, I'm going to try and talk my parents into getting me a 22" widescreen monitor for my B-Day or X-Mas. My current one likes to randomly change it's hue on me, it likes purple and orange.

A PC monitor is a great way to get an HDTV for a good price. I got one on Black Friday for $250 after rebates and sales. Normally it runs for $400 or so.
