    Thanks for the information...

    I've an ex-girlfriend I'm sitll friends with, she's about as technically challenged as they come. I'm slowly pushing her in the current Century. I bought her her first "real" sound system an open box Onkyo 2 channel and 5 disc player about 9 years ago. She stil has it. Finally she called me and tells me she just bought her first home and her T.V. is too small to see. Her T.V. was a 19 inch portable she was trying to see from 17 feet away...

    Needless to say your B.F. information came in handy. I used these prices and models to check online prices. By Monday she'll have a brand new 37" LG HDTV in her living room. I'll front her an old entry level Onkyo HT receiver and some lay around speakers, should be able to get her to 4.0 but the sub will have to wait. Thanks again for the information.

    What made you decide on a LG TV?

    If they are going to do that, Samsung might as well take a step further and and like Sony use three LEDs cluster instead of single white LED with color filter. As you said, it will give Samsung more accurate color gamut.

    Why LG?

    I did a little research and the LG's were on a big time sale on New Egg, almost half the list price. LG's aren't Samsungs, but they ain't Vizio's either. To me they represent a "sweet spot" for second system LCD's or entry level buyers. Plus its what she could afford best. We ordered it on Tuesday, UPS delivered it on Thursday, it don't friggin git no better than that!!!!
