I've heard that hooking up, say an xbox, to a big screen tv will damage it. Is this true or just a myth? We have a 53" rear projection, 2 tuner tv, and a Bose Lifestyle surround sound system that I've been DYING to play some forza on! I'll turn the system off when I'm done playing it, and I won't be playing for very long periods of time (2 hours at a time max).
Thanks, -Josh |

i'm not sure about xbox but i know ps2 has a inatice screen saver .. if you go 10 minutes or more with out using the controller a the screen dims and the image on the scren starts moving back and forth ... but like art said its an old myth that started with apple computers with the amber text screens.... they only things that do get damaged are the projection tv . the ones you put on a table and project the image on a wall or screen... but that only happend if you live the same image on for over an hour... don't ask me how i found that out ... (damn lesbo porn)
