Turbo Express- active matrix=best screen clarity, 8 bit 
processor

Nomad-passive matrix=good screen clarity, 16 bit processor

Lynx-passive matrix,low resolution=poor screen quality, 16 
bit(some say 8), with hardware scaling and rotation.

If you dont believe me that the TE has better screen 
resolution and picture, get a turbo tuner and run the 
Nomads rca output to a rca to micro/jack adapter  then into 
the tuner.  You can watch the nomad game on both the nomad 
and te at the same time.  
Your statement leads me to believe you either dont have a 
TE or you need to check your eyesite, because my statement 
is fact not system bias-I do own them all.

It may seem
