Sears happened to have a sale on the Sylvania 20" flat screens for $99 so
I
bought it today. I guess, for that price, if should ever break out of
warranty I could always simply get another inexpensive TV instead of
repairing it.

Maybe I'm being very picky, but even though the TV is supposed to be a
flat
screen, to me, it seems like the actual screen of the CRT tube itself,
inside the TV, may be very slightly curved, (not truly flat) and they
compensated for it by adjusting the picture geometry. Granted it could
just
my imagination or perhaps I'm being very nit-picky. Can't complain at all
for $99 though.

By the way, is there any way I can adjust the picture geometry, etc.
myself?
In other words, is there a special key combination when powering up the
unit
that would allow me access to special extra setup commands, etc.

Thanks,

J.


Melbourne, Australia - couple of months ago I bought a 21" "Sonwa" - Chinese
brand X - dead flat screen, stereo sound, s-video input. Perfect picture.
Bought it for $199, but now being sold for $150. That's $150 Australian.
That's probably less than $100 US.

Good for consumers, but bad for workers in the electronic and computer
industries. I would say it is also bad for our economies...
