RE: At 10', he's going to need at least 60" for 1080p

That graph is hogwash. I dont know what data they used to come up with it, but I find in my experience it is way off. We have a 50" Panasonic plasma, and we sit about 17 feet away from the screen. According to the graph, 480, 720 and 1080 should all look the same, but we can certainly see the difference between 480 SD DVD and Dish network HD (mostly 720). Dont have blue ray yet, waiting for LOTR to come out first!
