"The unit out of the box is quite hefty, but remember this is a computer and the styling is nice. So how does it work? I hooked it up to my Sony Grand Wega (1080i) via the HDMI interface (using supplied cable). I tried it first on a regular DVD (U571) and the performance was nothing short of amazi …"  Read Full Review »

"This is a good machine for the money. [...]It handles both high def and non-high def dvd's with upscaling capability. Blue-Ray won't play your oldies like this.
