Hope I am posting this in the right place. I will keep this short.

I am planning to but a Sony Vaio Model: VGN-NW270F/S http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9556241&type=product&id=1218124208177 . I plan to connect it to my Panasonic 42PV60 via HDMI. I was wondering will or should the Blu Ray player on this upscale DVD's ?

Yes, of course. If you mean high-quality upscaling, then computers have been doing that for donkeys years, and have enough flexibility to do as good or better than any so called upscaling DVD player.

Its really just a fad word to be honest. You can't create any extra detail - all you can do is expand the image in the best way possible, and that's all an upscaling DVD player does. At least with your computer you can configure it, adjust the amount of edge-enhancement, scaling method, etc. I wouldn't worry, you should get a great picture with the right software.
