Were you tuned to a hi-def channel?

Compare a hi-def HDTV setup next to a standard HDTV setup (with no HD tuner) and you'll see the difference.

It's simple math, Skip.
1920x1080 > 640x480 Just watch an HD channel and then switch to an SD channel...the difference is huge.

HD signals can not be transmitted over an S-Video cable. Therefore, there should not be a discernable difference on the smaller screen television.

I know I wouldn't want a Hi-Def signal if I didn't have an HD-ready widescreen TV.

Here's an excellent comparison using Madden 2006:

How old was the other guy? Did he have his glasses on? Did you have your glasses on?
As a science teacher, I think that you could only do this test with 2 TV's that were the same make and model with the same hook ups. I can definitely tell the difference with DVD's on my HDTV over DTV with S video. Is it worth the price difference yet? No.

I think Skip, and his customer base, are a minority. Not really worth arguing about it anymore.

I can tell you that when I went to an electronics store recently, they has two indetical televisions set up side by side. Both of them were big screen. Both were on the same channel, playing the exact same thing. The Hi-Def picture blew the standard picture right the hell out of the water. No comparison whatsoever.
