    Plasma! 50" Pioneer, but not 1080p though so I have to get a new one soon so I can enjoy the full resolution of my BLU-rays.

    I have a 46" Samsung 1080p LCD, a 19" Samsung 1400x900 LCD (got it for free), and there's still an old 15" Sony CRT in the house that's occasionally switched on for testing.

    My primary TV is a 50" Sony LCD rear projection 1080i HDTV. It has an awesome picture that I would put up against most LCD or Plasma TVs. Some people find this hard to believe, but I set up my brothers and my sisters Samsung 40" 1080p sets with Avia and my old Sony clearly looks better. I'm no novice, just an early adopter, I have a Toshiba HD player and an LG HD/Bluray player and all the HD that Comcast has to offer, so I've watched it with all sorts of media.
    I also have a 32" 720p Olevia in the bedroom.
    Oh, and a 26" CRT HDTV in my exersize room, but that hasn't gotten much use lately.

    Just recently had to replace a 28" 100Hz WS Toshiba CRT and got a 37" Sony LCD. Picture is a LOT better than I expected when watching SD Sky+ and commercial DVDs played through my ageing Liteon DVD recorder connected via component cable look stunning, so I'm not rushing ahead to go to HD.

  16. Bought a 34" Panasonic CRT (1080i) in a final-clearance sale a few years back. Great picture, cat-proof screen, and only weighs 170 pounds. The next one should be organic-LED or maybe I'll buy a can of RGB and just paint it on the wall.

    yoda - THANKS for using the poll .

    Also, I'm going to PM BALDRICK and get his recipe for TURTLE SOUP :P



    kayembee - Sorry, I totally forgot about Projection Sets




    I recently got a used 1.5 year old Polaroid 32" LCD 1366x768 (manufactured by Proview) for free that needed repair - my first HD LCD TV. I was able to get the parts from Polaroid at a reasonable price, so the set is completely functional - I LOVE IT . Although, I do not have any HD content - only SD Satellite, and standard DVD - but I did hook up a rabbit ear antenna to check out the OTA HD.

    My beloved 18 year old 32" Sony CRT tv is now enjoying semi-retirement.

    I don't have a TV, just a PC tuner card that I very rarely use. Not much on TV here worth watching anyway.

    I have a 46" LCD Samsung LN-4665 downstairs that others watch more than me. I watch DVD and some primetime HDTV down there but mostly I watch my Philips HD CRT up in the computer room so I guess that is my prime TV. Some day I'll replace it with an LED backlight LCD for power efficiency.

    25" SD CRT. Not likely to change any time soon.

    "Go Green" is what an old CRT does. Sometimes blue.

    I wish I could but couldn't afford one if it was even $50.
