I'm looking at purchasing a HDTV. I thought I was going to get Toshiba 42" LCD HDTV (42HL167) but after reading about how the TV doesn't have true 1080p hdmi input, I'm not second guessing the purchase. Now I don't have a PS3 or BluRay dvds, but I would like to purchase for the future. I also know that there will never be a broadcast signal of 1080p. But I would like to connect my Mac to the set. Why I don't know, just want to. So my question, is there a 42" LCD set that has true 1080p inputs for around 1800.00? -- J "If there is anything I can do for you or more to the point to you, let me know." |

Note that it is a monitor without a tuner, meaning if you want over the air broadcast you would need a separate tuner. I've been pleased with the LVM-37w3. -Bill -- Sattre Press Pagan Papers http://sattre-press.com/ by Kenneth Grahame http://sattre-press.com/pp.html |

Where did you read that the Toshiba didn't have 'true' 1080P over HDMI. What constitutes non-'true' 1080P? The Toshiba website at least doesn't seem to imply that ... http://www.tacp.toshiba.com/televisi...?model=42hl167 |

Notice that there is not a 1 in the front of 67. My bad thank you everyone. -- J "If there is anything I can do for you or more to the point to you, let me know." |
