Rating:  - Huh?
I am not a geek when it comes to technology, but I do know a DVI from an HDMI. 90% of this product takes you from some interesting information to the mind numbing detail. After several passes, I was able to set the brightness and contrast, but I could not figure out what I was even shooting for with the color settings. I would say, put the money on this toward the $300 for a pro to come to your home. Sure they will set it up in 10 minutes, but it beats the hour plus I spent and still don't know if I am even ...
