I love my HDTV


Great, now tell me how many years will you be in debt for it, and what
high interest you have to pay?


Sorry to disappoint you, but I paid cash, $1300 three years ago. Add
another $100 for the wood as I built my own solid oak furniture grade stand
for it.


We're all different.... If you can justify that kind of money for a
tv, thats great. To me, anything much over $100 is too much.
To me, a tv is just something to catch the news and weather and watch
an occasional tape or dvd. Even if I could get cable, I wouldnt spend
no $50 or more per month. That's just my preference. I'd rather
spend the money on other things that I get more enjoyment from.

I can watch a movie on a 12 inch tv with one speaker, or on a big
screen with surround. It's the same movie and I can enjoy it the same
either way. It's just a movie ! I also dont care for loud sound
systems. I cant hear the doorbell, or anything else with all that
noise. Being a farmer, I have to listen to what's going on outside so
I dont end up like my neighbor who recently had his entire herd of
cattle and horses get loose.

On the other hand, sitting in front of my antique Zenith and watching
an old B&W episode of Bonanza or the Lone Ranger brings back great
memories.
