Professor Poor is known as a scam artist. lol, yeah i do object to the spamming especially since most people reading this group will likely know or be able to find out any info needed. that said to joe consumer looking to spend a couple of grand on a tv a guide may be worthwhile if only to reduce the ammount they get ripped off by. Personally i aint buying dick till i can get a 1080p unit, my cable service provides hdtv feeds (ntl are crap and it could be over a year) and hopefully prices drop/the tech matures a bit. |

I had an uncle who didn't want to buy a color TV until they 'perfected' it. He died in 1983 with a black & white. He could have enjoyed what was available instead of waiting for 'perfection'. Perhaps you could take a lesson and enjoy while you can. BTW, there are progressive displays right now. Ours is coming up on 3 years old GG |
