The lengthy postings on HDTV were very informative. The author suggested aiming arguments for square pixels at the U.S. and European HDTV Standards organizations. An article I read has interesting implications, given that the HDTV "arena" is still unsettled. From the February 1989 issue of _RF Design_: ``DoD Confirms Plans for Funding HDTV --- The Department of Defense (DoD) has confirmed its plans to fund development work on High-Definition Television (HDTV) technology as part of its 1990 budget, and has announced a request for research proposals. An estimated $30 million will be spent on the development of high-definition display and display processor technology. It is anticipated DoD's support of HDTV research and development will have a significant impact for commercial producers in the HDTV market.'' -- --==---==---==-- .. Beware the Jubjub bird, ..
