Hey Guys,

I know most of you guys are very knowledgeable with computers so I though I would ask about Big Screens. I am buying a house and will need a new Big Screen and I have never purchased one before. I really dont know much about the newer tech with T.V. and want to do some homework before I go out and buy one. Can you guys give me some pointers of what I should look for in a new TV.

I have heard some bad things about Plasma, but dont know whats what. Please share what you all know on the topic.

TV's SUCK!

we just went through this 4 months ago....

we wanted a flat screen tv.... so we started looking first the cost... under 2k.... we dont have alot of room (small apt) so the max we could go was low 50's or 40's if they had them. so... first the flat screens DLP all seemed to get pixlish and black wasnt black. then came another type that was flat, still black wasnt "black, and the pictures were not that great, lil blurry, lil distortion, lil quirks that would piss me off....

rear projection is DEAD, and so far I hear that there is 2 types (from best buy sales rep) eventually one will become dominant like beta and VHS. so we gave up looking for a good price and quality...

then I seen a philps 37 widescreen projection HD tv. $800 25% off

had a great picture, cheap, HD, flatscreen....
till they figure out what tv is going to be "the tv" ill watch it on this "out of date" b4 I bought it tv!
