I was a little late to jump on the HD bandwagon, purchasing my TV just over a year ago. My old TV died a tragic death during American Idol season, and I just couldn’t bear to watch the show on the little 19″ box in my bedroom. So I made a trip to Best Buy to look for a replacement. I found a Westinghouse that had the most clear, crisp picture I had ever seen. And to top it all off, it was on sale! I got a killer deal. But when the Best Buy associate pointed out that I’d need special HDMI cables, my enthusiasm turned to dread. As I’ve mentioned before, I can’t even hook up a DVD player, so I wasn’t about to attempt this complex task. Why is it that you need so many darn cables anyway? So I did what any technically challenged gal would do. I called a guy – my brother to be exact.
That TV is one of the best things I’ve ever bought for myself. Other than the fact that it’s possessed, of course. But man, Idol nights are better than ever. And I can’t wait to see next week’s finale in Hi-Def! Hopefully the ghost won’t have other plans.

Yeah, I love mine too… and use it as my computer monitor as well.

I’m VERY envious of your TV! But not so much on the American Idol front… I had to stop after Melinda Dolittle was voted out last season or whatever.
