I watched a Laser Disc movie on my 92-inch digital LCD projector screen last night. It looked quite good (except that the movie's transfer to video itself was poor). As Eric said, the big variable in NTSC/analog/standard-definition performance on HD displays is the quality of the conversion circuitry. Laser Disc players themselves varied widely in video-output quality; the one I used is a later but not high-end model Pioneer CLD-D504. VHS is another matter, though. No matter how much you spend on your lipstick (the LCD display), you're still putting it on a pig.
