Nothing particularly wrong per-se but Windows MCE looks really crap at 852
x
480 pixels and a 480 pixel vertical resolution *ISN'T* by any stretch of
the
imagination hi-def capable.

I'm also a tad unimpressed by the gaffs in the specs ... "Optimal
solution
1280 x 1024 over VGA" (a 1280 x 1024 display interpolated down to 852
x 480
is hardly optimal) and "Full HDTV compatibility (480p, 720p, 1080i)
via DVD
input including HDCP decoding" (I assume they mean DVI rather than
DVD).
