Component vs HDMI, is there that much of a difference in terms on picture quality?
Nope, Component and HDMI(as well as VGA and DVI while we're at it...) all have the same picture quality. It can vary slightly between displays, but ideally they should all look the same. Generally, any difference in picture quality perceived is just from the HDTV's settings and once calibrated the pq will be identical.

That said, I use HDMI whenever possible as it is digital and more or less today's home theater standard.

hmm that's a good question. I'll add it.

Too bad I didn't see this 2 weeks ago when I purchased my Samsung 50" plasma TV. I went through months of researching before making my decision. These were all (Mostly) of the questions asked when looking. Be careful about stores like Best Buy wanting to sell you that $300 "Come to your home" and tweak your TV to fine tune the colors. Here's a web site to give you all the settings you need for your HDTV to fine tune your tv.

find your tv and go....try the settings to see if it makes a difference. Hope this helps also.
