HP is now making TVs, so I get the employee discount. I've also been looking at HP projectors, since our family room has two large walls suitable for projecting large images. Still, we're happy with our existing TV; I probably won't do anything until it dies. And somewhere in the back of my mind is still a vague desire to watch less TV and read more books :) Everything changes in a year, of course. HP is now making TVs, so I get the employee discount.

Got a Panasonic Veisa 27 inch just two days after the price was dropped from $1700 to $1300, making the CPR palateable. It has been a fab thing to watch. This model has the processor that turns standard TV signals into HD automatically. We got a Rogers HD box for a while but never once used it for HD. Gave it back. Waste of $, that. Movies are great on this set because of the automatic conversion to HD. Cheers, Helge. We bought an HDTV after our trusty old Magnavox died.
