I've really been pleased with my upgrade. There are a couple extras that have been very well received here - editable input names for video inputs (so my wife knows what the active input is, since for some reason "Video1" equating to the DVD-R didn't work so well), an extra component input, transcoding from s-video or composite to component, and the DVI switching have all be very nice to have. It also has shown an edge over the 950 on sound.

The upgrade will probably set you back at least $600 or so (since 950's seem to be fetching anywhere from $400 to $500 used), but it's been a good upgrade for me. As with anything, YMMV.
