My first thought was "What an idiot", but then I realized just what you said, his statements are propaganda to lull the less informed segments of the market that still cough up the bucks for ESPN (and a few other channels), not what he believes or knows (most likely). He's selling to my wife. My teenagers just plug HDMI into the computer (from the TV) and go find the shows they want. He's already lost, but it will take him 5 to 10 years to know it. To answer one person down there, yes, I had to tinker with the PC about 5 minutes (Ubuntu 10.04) to get drivers and settings correct, but HDMI works great after that. (sound, aspect ratio, it's all good!)
