I am going to get a HDTV by the end of this year; hopefully. Given that it's my first one, how will I be able to tell if it's a good or bad picture? Also, how can I tell it's the TV and not my bad eyesight?

Therefore it's all subjective.

... the mystery is why it affects some which I estimate is a good 10% of installs.
Based on anecdotal evidence at best. Hardly a reliable figure

You see posts from new Tivo installs every day on here and VM support forum with comments about the negative picture as well as those who say it is fine. If it was based on posts it would be more like 50/50 but those with installs where they are happy are unlikely to post as those who see a problem so more like 10% I would say.
More made-up stats.

Only VM would know for sure but by viewing both the threads on cable forum and also the 2 on the VM support forum on this subject, there is an issue here which just cannot be ignored.
Have never said any different.

VM are looking into this though, NickO from VM on the Tivo support forum has said they are investigating and comparing Tivo with V+. He will report when they have completed their investigations.
Fair enough.
