Is Your House High Def?

It's been awhile since I've done a reader survey. Last year I asked a few questions to get a better handle on what topics readers are most interested in seeing me write about. I continue to remain cognizant of those interests and should likely ask similar questions again.

With all the hype around whether Blu-ray or HD-DVD will be the winner of the race for HD shiny disks, I'm asking some basic questions about HDTV, HD disks and HD video editing. I'm requiring a valid email address as part of the responses so that I can contact one person selected at random to send a free copy of Windows Vista Ultimate. I'll post the aggregate results of the survey, minus any personally identifying info next week. Feel free to add any additional comments on HD present and future in the comments below.
