    Has anyone tried hooking the 9300 DVI port to a 42 inch plasma TV? Or any TV with DVI input? How about S-video to TV? What is the quality like?

    The S-video to TV looks ok. I pretty much don't use it even though I have it hooked up. There is a major res difference because the tv can only run at 1024x768, so it ruins the notebook res. How does the dvi look?

    Right now I have my desktop, with a 6800, hooked up to my projector through dvi and it works great, I doubt the 9300 would work any differently. Eventually I plan on moving that PC out of there and using my 9300 with MCE as an HTPC hooked up to the projector and Xbox 360 when it comes out.
