About to open our new 52" LCD TV! ($2350 from Costco, counting Costco membership.)

(If you've been paying attention, this photo is a bit out of order time-wise, because the computer building photos spanned several days. I probably should have uploaded this one first.)

	ClintJCL says: Yea, I have to use the nosquint firefox plugin which memorizes different zoom levels for different websites. For example, I'm at 160% zoom here. It was "only" $2350. That's still more than double what I paid for my 36-inch CRT in 1999... But the resolution is more than double as well, so per pixel it's probably worth it. And CRTs aren't the clearest thing; using it would hurt my eyes. Of course, 8 months on this screen and my eyes are having real problems that they didn't with a CRT, despite the fact that this is crystal clear, and the CRT was quite blurry. Maybe it's age (34)... But I'm used to 20/20 vision and not having problems focusing! Posted 4 months ago. ( permalink )
