If I hooked a DVI cable from a Mac to an HDTV and played an HD Movie file in full screen, would it really be HD on the television? Still thinking about this eyeTV 500

If you can get an HDTV that works, then yes. I have the EyeTV 500 and I like it but I don't have any HDTV with a DVI I could jack it into to test this. I know people have found ways to use HDTV's hooked up to their Powerbooks and Powermacs but they usually require some playing around with the setting to rid yourself of overscan.
Here is a thread over at Ars where the whole subject is discussed:
