I know that the specs just begged for the application by making HDMI the hi-res output instead of WXVGA (or whatever it's currently called, the 15-pin Dsub connector), but really.... I'm amazed that the first criteria that any new computer is judged by in the reviews is "how well does it stick a pacifier in my mouth and entertain me?"

I'm assuming the chipset or connector size made HDMI a better choice than *VGA, not the idea that everyone will turn it into a media center.

I'm surprised no one asked how well it runs Crysis or Diablo.
