Once i move,I'm going to be in the market for a new Tv,I dont want this Tv to be costing more then my frigging quad,i see some tvs nowadays for 5 grand:ermm:

Im looking for something under a grand which i can help my rents pay for it,and they will buy the rest of it for me for my bday/christmas.

Whats the diffrence between LCD,plasma,etc.

The absolute MAXIMUM i am going to spend is 1200 :scary:

Why spend so much if you are starting out? Walmart, Bestbuy and Circuit city has some nice 27 inch regular TV's for $250-350.

Go down to PC richards ands sons on 17south and talk to them. They are good and you can haggle with them.
But DLP is the ***** :D

well i dont know what kind of technology you are looking for but there are many options.


i have a phillips 34" HD WS that looks pimp for movies and games. it was $1000

or you can get a good sized rear projection set for you price/ just look around.


your not gonna be able to get a decent sized quality lcd or plasma for 1200. sorry. mebbe an EDTV set, but thats pointless. if your gonna get a plasma/lcd jst get hi def.

my samsung 32"lcd was 1800. picture cant be beat, but i would want it in a room that big. its too small.

i would get a good HD rear projection if it were me. great for movies, tv games....everything. i have one in my main tv room and its great.
