FINALLY! This Old Timer Finally Got The Courage...

[John L]

to actually buy a new TV, first time in17 years.  Its not that the old analog TV is broke, I finally decide I am gonna replace it and its gonna end up being re-cycled while I enjoy my new 47" HDTV LED 1080p from HHGregg who will deliver it Friday and take away the old analog 19".

I've been on this board for a longtime and I feel I am the ONLY person left without any upgrading. I am sure EVERYONE else here has had a HDTV long before the local stations turned off their analog transmitters.

Congratulations on your frugality and your ability to delay gratification.  Now then ... You have been assimilated.  Before you undergo the hypnosis of the big screen, set a calendar reminder for Christmas or so to check back in with a review.

Congrats! - Just don't expect to get 17 years out of a LCD/LED tv - it's probably a 50/50 shot it'll last more than 5 years.  Hope you bought a warranty.  My Dad's  Toshiba TV conked out just a few months shy of his Best Buy 4 YR warranty running out.
