Anyone else go HDTV for Christmas this year?

[derby378]

Technically, we're not HD just yet - the 32" HDTV 720p LCD television is still sitting in its box, patiently waiting for me to get through the manual and unpack the darn thing.

The first time I saw HD was at the Dallas Museum of Art, some 15 years ago if my memory serves me, and the picture was just gorgeous. Then again, the only way I could have bought an HD set back then is if I had $15,000 lying around as well as a spare room to dedicate to the gigantic set. And honestly, I'd be perfectly happy with another non-HD set, but it's getting harder and harder to find such a set in stores - everyone is going exclusively HD around here. And our current set is dying. The raster lines are rolling from the top of the screen and interfering with the rest of the picture, the image is starting to shimmer and shiver, etc. So, here we are.

Looking forward to the kickass picture, but not looking forward to the install. It's still a huge set.
