Is your PC ready for HD?

Cyberlink, purveyor of PowerDVD Ultra, has a handy tool on their website, the Cyberlink BD/HD Advisor that will scan your system and tell you if your components are ready to handle HD content. Downloading is a breeze with broadband, the file is 2MB. I hooked my HD-ready HP computer to a non-HD monitor to see if the Advisor correctly identified things - it did.
