HDTV calibration
CNET Reviews has a good column on the merits of getting your HDTV calibrated. Many people will spend a buttload of money on an HD set; however, they don't ever adjust the picture settings which, out of the box, are set waaay to bright. Plus, many of the adjustments needed aren't even accessible via the TV's menu system. So the only way to really get the most out of your HDTV is to have it calibrated.
If you're debating whether or not to shell out the $400-600 for a professional ISF calibration, check out this column first.
