Also one thing that always drove me crazy with the 990 was lack of an OSD. How is the OSD with the 976 as opposed to the 990?

To answer your question about the OSD I think the 990 actually had a much better display.
With the 990 you could rename all of the inputs to what ever you wanted.
That is not the case with the 976.
You are stuck with what it comes with.
