In a week or so, YouTube will start stream-lining 1080p videos, with full screen view.
This means any caving related videos uploaded to YouTube that were high rez, will eventually be available to watch on a 56" plus LCD screen in high rez. Presuming you have a fast internet, and a graphics card in you PC that can handle it. Feel free to correct me on all of that. So if you are in the market for a camcorder, and plan to post your videos on YouTube, then you might want to consider one that records in 1080p. On a related note, I think the price and the quality of the 42 inch televisions has dropped recently. The low end brands at Walmart are $ 778, and even the Sony's are under $ 1,000 now. I think all can be used as monitors now, presuming your PC has an HDMI slot. I would have never imagined that people on low income budgets would be buying 56 inch hi-rez TV's to mount on the wall, but they are. David Locklear
