HP DreamColor, no HD-SDI?

[walter biscardi] “I’m just of the mind it’s ludicrous to spend money I don’t have to”

Well I’m always of that mindset. But given the silly low price of the new Blackmagic Mini Converters, I don’t see it as a significant purchase. The converters are also great for feeding embedded SDI audio into your analog mixer. Buy whatever you want. But you’re the one who asked me why it’s different using component on a CRT vs an LCD. It is different and I hope I explained it to your liking.

[walter biscardi] “Using something like a Dell 2407 or even this HP Dreamcolor for broadcast monitoring is something I would not do”

I agree with the Dell, but the HP is supposedly the most accurate LCD monitor in existence.

[walter biscardi] “If HD-SDI is the single most important factor in your world, then have at it.”

I never said it was the single most important thing. I don’t know what that argument tactic is called exactly, but I’m sure it’s one or more of these:
