Well I have a 34" Panasonic CRT HDTV only can do 1080 no 720p if I buy a dvi to hdmi cord will it produce a good picture in 1080i or will it downconvert to 480i..... ???? Also can our laptops with a gig ram and a 7800 go run 1080P/1080i WMV-HD with no problems?

Anyone got pics of there laptop on a HDTV?

From what I know HDMI-to-HDMI will transfer audio at least from DISH HD DVR to a Toshiba and JVC TV's as for DVI-to-HDMI I would have to say that it won't but I'll research it.

DVI-D transfers uncompressed digital video in its native format between source and display or between components.
If you read all of this webpage it shows nothing about audio through DVI.

I'm going to hook it up when I get it just for fun, I doubt I'll use it very often but might as well I guess. haha

NVIDIA'S website says the GO 7800 GTX supports 2048X1536 @ 85Hz, so I'm not sure on the GO 7800, is it the same or no?

Afaik HDMI and DVI is practically the same, the difference is that HDMI transfers both audio and video, DVI is only video. Picture-quality-wise there should be no difference.
