*sigh*  Pbj and myself were just getting a laugh out of the complete b.s. that is the marketing for this board.  I'm sorry you didn't see the humor.

I try not to get to caught up in the back and forth. It's relatively cheep and works much better then the cheep upscalers.

My Saturn looked bad before and looks grate now.

Yes, it looks very nice in your photo.  I'm not so much of a purist that I want such a device, but I'm glad they exist.

Back of the box buzz words!  Mode 7 or Blast Processing would be proud!

Yeah, I just want something that upscales nicely onto my LCD, and doesn't have a lot of lag.  The XRGB mini is really hard to play action-type games on, since the lag is noticeable *to me* (though I'm sensitive to this thing, being a frame counter twitch player).
Nanoseconds, milliseconds, parsecs, whatever the measurement...I could care less. As long as it feels good on my gaming LCD monitor and I'm able to properly play Shooters and Fighting games without feeling like I'm swimming in molasses, I'm happy. From what I hear this thing is a better solution than the XRGB Mini in that regard, and it's cheaper. It just doesn't have as much menu options as the Mini, yet.
