- just check out these screen captures from the XO transfer

Yeah, I have seen those and they are amazing. I compared the screenshot of Vader/Shaw on the X0 site with a shot of the same frame on the 2004 DVD and while the DVD image edged it out by a bit, it wasn't by much; plus the colors were better on the X0 shot than on the DVD. The improvement of the X0 compared to the TR47 was greater than the improvement of the DVD compared to the X0.

But I grew up watching vintage 80's rental pan & scan VHS tapes and TR47 is certainly an improvement over those. Plus, X0 is still a ways off, "pre-production" stage as Laserman put it in the X0 thread.
