so i have an old 27" crt samsung in the bedroom and it has some lines on the sides and is pretty old.

here's a 40" toshiba, 1080p, 60hz on newegg for $400.

60hz kind of bothers me, but it's only in the bedroom and i won't really be doing much video gaming / movie watching in there.

thoughts?

 

its better then what i got. still rocking a tube TV. i say go for it. but i don't know anything about TV's.

 

I put a 32" in my beadroom and it feels freakin huge so 40" might be too big.

 

^ no such thing

 

I have an older Syntax Olevia 37", 720p, 60hz in my bedroom. I don't think you'll have any problem with the 60hz with your planned usage -- I've watched a lot of sports on this TV and have never noticed any of the problems people associate with the TV being "only" 60hz.

 

Before I move to Turkey I need to buy a plasma for myself...or else I can't leave Turkey with one if bought there. :/

 

that's what i got in my bedroom. 50" plasma in the living room.

seriously

yeh i don't think i'll notice it. i do have an extra 360 i'm puttin' in there on it for some late night gaming. might have to buy an extra ps3 for bluray too h:

what?

 

LT you made no sense

 

The venerable trinitron quit after 20 years. Got it used, four hundred 1993 dollars. Six speaker surround sound that was surprisingly good. A very heavy mofo, I can tell you.

More than the 32" Phillips LCD I got would have been too big for the thing I was putting it on, would stick out both sides, cost three bills.

 

Go look at the tv somewhere before you buy it...
