All NTSC fans should try previewing the Phillips digital
monitor (60 Hz frame, non-interlaced) with a video disc
as a source. It looks sickly. It beautifully shows all
the weaknesses of "NTSC on steroids" and is as good an
argument as I've seen for going to HDTV. 

To heck with backwards-compatibility to a 50-year-old 
technology!
