    .....give me the low down! I'm ready to spend a very reasonable $600ish and visio has a 32 in my range. Should I grease my palm and let go of a couple of hundreds more? Is it worth the expense? I'm using this tv for a 20 x 20 room. .....hey, I worked wonders in the husband of the year award when I got the A/C working. Now I'm getting the "what have you done for me lately blast"! Mommas BDay tommorrow.

    Get a 37" Vizio LCD at Sams, Walmart, or Costco.


    Do you have TWC or Direct TV? Do you have a dvr?

    I was comparing 32" Visio with Samsung, and others at walmart, and Visio's pic was just as good. Next I need to compare Visio with BesBuy's house brand.

    ....goes to the slip valve to increase....uhhhh, get my point? I don't know about tvs, cars, but I do know houses and how easy it is to pick the wrong thing, paint type, roof material, contractor......so thanks Chris for your help. I have TWC, no direct tv, no dvr.

    I brought a Vizio home for a few days from a good store to see how good the cheaper models are (considering keeping it for the bedroom or a kids TV). My wife complained immediately that it wasn't worth keeping, our Panasonic plasma was much better after both were adjusted and fed HD, SD, and DVD signals instead of whatever crap they toss in the stores. I'm a fan of most models other than the cheapies, whether it's Pioneer, Panasonic, Samsung, or a few others.

    Huh? after...

    ....reading your post I figured your wife was right and had a reason to bitch, as they all do, but when I read at the bottom of your post, you know,the toothless, wellhung blast...........I figured immediately that what you say about anything means squat!....It takes one to know one!!! I'm with you brother. I could pay $5000, well, if I could pay $5000 for a refrig. my wife would say its not cold enough. etc. .....and if I ever went to the "my thing in your thing"...I'd be toothless!!!! .....Bootay, you are a trip, and we've got to hook up....no camera phones please.

    I've heard that Panasonic is the very best for the money among major brands of most anything eletronic.
