Usually I watch 50Hz PAL channels. But I don't care, interlacing is very hard 
to notice unless I am very near the screen. If I watch it far enough I don't 
see any jagging.

Also, I use my TV mostly to watch dvd's, and AFAIK PAL dvd's are not 
interlaced. They look almost perfect (Matrix Reloaded DVD is so crisp and 
sharp!!!)

But when I watch TV on my TFT monitor it looks like shit! :(
