Tmartin's post is valid, but given that few components have component video switching, especially in a budget market, and the number of outboard video switchers (extron comes to mind) the video issue is an easy upgrade later, especially if you use a good universal remte (I use a pronto)that can tie it all together...
Just a thought, personally I'd go seperates, I started my HT with a receiver, then added seperate power amps and finally went to seperate AV pre/pro (Linn AV5103). Seperates are always easier to upgrade and I find maintain resale value far better than receivers.
