HDMI = Big whoop!It's just dvi + digital soundI guess if you're builing a home theatre pc its nice but really all you need is HDCP enabled DVI + coax or optical out.
akijikan: You can't "enable" DVI to support HDCP - that's the whole point of HDMI.
that's not what I meant. I meant buy a graphics card with HDCP-compliant DVI ports...like my 8800 has 'em. HDMI is snake oil.
