Well, we did it.

My wife and I bought our first HD television tonight. 

We have gone from a 27" standard def TV to a 40" 1080p Toshiba LCD.

Those commercials where people are overwhelmed by shopping for them is spot on.  I researched it out alot yesterday and thought I knew what I wanted, until I got to the store and we started to compare everything.

I was ready to get a 32" set, then my wife was the 40-42" ones and there was no way to convince her to go smaller.  I do so love my wife.

Side by side it came down between this and a Sony 40" LCD but we both agreed that the Toshiba has just slightly better colors, the white were better, and the blacks looked phenominal (do doo do do do).  

Now my wife wants to get a surround sound set up for in here.....its so hard living with a wife that is into tech sometimes...(sarcasm).

We are going to get a PS3 for Christmas for the BluRay movies and I am going to run network cable up to the living room in order to get this XBox 360 live and running so we can have netflix running up here as well.

I am also way hopped up on pain medicine from my back surgery yesterday.

I would  like to apologize to Digital Violence for their fund raiser GoW2 event, I just can't sit and play games, the way they cut through the layers of muscle in my back has me in a position where I can't play for long periods of time.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Sorry for the blog format, I am....how shall we say...medicinally stoned
