It&#8217;s nice but we had a lot of trouble with the first brand that we bought.  We went through three of them before changing brands!  I don&#8217;t even want to think about those months of having a brand new very expensive TV that didn&#8217;t work.<\/p>\n<p>So this time round I&#8217;m thinking about getting an LCD TV.  An HDTV of course. Now that I&#8217;m used to one I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d want to give that up.   So I&#8217;ve been reading write ups to find out what the best lcd tvs are so that we don&#8217;t run into any problems when we buy one.<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>I think it&#8217;s good to do some research before you purchase something that you&#8217;re going to be using for 10 years or so.    It&#8217;s not like we didn&#8217;t do any research when we bought our DLP tv, we did, it&#8217;s just that the brand that we thought had the nicest picture turned out to be one heck of a lemon!<\/p>\n<p>The technology isn&#8217;t as new now, especially if we go with an LCD TV so I&#8217;m sure with a little research we won&#8217;t have a problem at all.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>It&#8217;ll be a few months before we are ready to buy a TV so If any of you have HD LCD TVs and want to point me towards some brands that you&#8217;ve tried I&#8217;d love to hear your suggestions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"b1291d92551e5c93995fce7897ccfc30\" data-index=\"9\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<br\/>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* OddPlanet_300x250_underpost *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"8431788844\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<br\/>\r\n\r\n<?php if ( is_search() || is_single() || is_page() || is_paged() || is_category() || is_archive() ) { ?>\r\n<div align=\"center\">\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  ( function() {\r\n    if (window.CHITIKA === undefined) { window.CHITIKA = { 'units' : [] }; };\r\n    var unit = {\"calltype\":\"async[2]\",\"publisher\":\"dragonden\",\"width\":550,\"height\":250,\"sid\":\"oddplanet\",\"color_site_link\":\"cf4343\",\"color_text\":\"333333\"};\r\n    var placement_id = window.CHITIKA.units.length;\r\n    window.CHITIKA.units.push(unit);\r\n    document.write('<div id=\"chitikaAdBlock-' + placement_id + '\"><\/div>');\r\n}());\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/cdn.chitika.net\/getads.js\" async><\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<?php } ?>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<br\/>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looks like I&#8217;m getting a new TV set soon!
