Well, I have come into a little $$ and am thinking about upgrading my current TV, a rear-projection 42" HDTV Samsung to this .

What I was wondering if anyone here has this TV and what opinions they could give on it.

Also, my g/f somehow thinks this is a waste of money and will be pretty miffed if I get it... so what arguments can I use to persuade her that it is a worthwhile purchas?

Thanks!

Ok, basically your fucked. Big time, your only choice (and I am not condoning this) is to go buy it, THEN apologize. I would suggest body armour.

I've found Sony to be highly overpriced, by far, but quality. As for your woman...who wears the pants in your house?

I've always had good luck with Sony.

As for who wears the pants... the appropriate question might be, who's in charge of giving him sex?

Sex-schmex. This is large screen HDTV, man. Get your priorities straight.

Sleeping in the doughouse isn't condusive to being able to see the new TV... which she'll probably use to watch the tear-jerker chick flicks on Oxygen and Lifetime in high definition, anyway.

And the fact is, even with satellite.....Sex is better than television, even better than movies.

Even better than Episodes IV, V, & VI of Star Wars.

Bah...Check here first, save the overhead, and buy that necklace she wants to keep you out of the doghouse. Best of both worlds...BTW...DLP won't 'burn in' like LCD, Plasma, or the earlier rear-projection sets. DLP also weighs less than half of those sets. ;)

Simple, break the old one somehow so as to make it a PITA for her to watch...just make her think it broke of it's own accord.
Is there something that you dislike abbout your old set or are you just wanting a newer toy?

Alright, my priorities are perfectly straight... TV is not as good as sex, but porn on the big tv would be FANTASTIC!

As for the pants wearing, it's all me. HOWEVER, I don't like the view from the doghouse (called her by her sister's name twice so far, but not during sex...) and I do want her to be happy with me... Oh, and Inky, I have actually taken the time to put parental control on Oxygen and Lifetime, so those channels aren't even an issue.

Gato, the TV I want is the same price on Crutchfield as it is in BB and I would prefer to buy it from a store in this case, on the chance that something goes wrong...

As for breaking the TV, could my foot going throgh the screen be in some way twisted to be an accident?

She is absolutely right and you should stop thinking about tv and go rub her feet.

Umm, she would kick me so hard if I tried that. She HATES having her feet touched or even looked at.... I dunno why, she just doesn't like them or something... so yeah, that would be a BAD way of getting her to like this idea...

Go to your local electronic or welder supply and get a big ass magnet. After she goes to bed, bolt it just under the right hand corner of the screen. Next morning, get it back out before she looks at the screen. It should cause a distortion in the colour and twist the focus. If you can get it completely hidden, leave it in place. You'll have a new TV in no time, and this one will magically start working right afterwards, so that you have a spare for the bedroom.

I think it's less a matter of who wears them, as it being safe to take them off at night.
