New TV

Well I finally did it.  I broke down and spent just about every last penny I had (fiscal irresponsibility FTW) and bought the best HD set I could afford...which isn't saying much heh.


Its an off-brand, 32", and so far so good.  Last time I had a high-def set I was living in an area that sold you digital cable but delivered analog, so I couldn't really see anything in the broadcast tv.  I know I need the setup with cables and all, but I am still getting great HD picture from cable.  There seem to be a lot of auxillary stations, like when you go to channel 5 for example its 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3.  The ".0" is like a regular broadcast signal, but the ".1": is HD and its really badass.


So anyway, maybe now I can actually read the text in these damn games for a change.  Who knows, I may even go back and try Dead Rising again since I might be able to read what Otis is telling me!

Sweet!! I lucked out a while back and bought a 50\" DLP from a guy who was getting divorced for $400. \r \r Once you go HD you can't go back.

Welcome to the HD club. Like broadband for the internet, once you go HD you can *never* go back to watching SD television without wanting to poke out your own eyeballs. :D
