Earlier this year, my wife and I were able to move into a larger house to prepare for an expanding family. The new place has a downstairs family room and an upstairs bonus/"play" room. I realized we'd probably watch a lot of cable TV and videos downstairs and move upstairs for movies, so I put my existing 32" 4:3 downstairs and purchased a 47" widescreen as the centerpiece of my home theater. The upstairs unit only play DVDs and receives 2 channels OTA (ABC and CBS, both of which bring me football on Sunday & Monday, thank goodness) . . .

Do the side bars bug you at all or is it
not a big deal?

  It's called "JUST" -- for "justify," I guess -- in the on-screen menu. Took some getting used to, but it looks OK and I don't have to worry about burn-in . . .
