In Reply to: What do you think about this TV? posted by Q-Bert on June 13, 2003 at 10:08:11:
I'd tend to agree with Dalencroft. I own a 29" 4:3 TV, & when I look at movies in widescreen, especially the more extreme examples like Lord Of The Rings, I loose more than 50% of the screen! & I sit about 6-7 feet away. I know that one can buy DVD's adapted for 4:3 TV, but I wouldn't recommend them - you loose to much that way, movie wise. Isn't there any affordable, smaller 16:9 TV's on the market? That would be a better choise if your main priority is watching movies, IMO.
Follow Ups:
The cheapest 16:9 I have found is still almost $400 at Sam's for some brand called AKAI. People have actually had decent things to say about this set and it does offer a nice picture. I would prefer the 16:9, and for only another $100....how many times have I said that before? :)
It's like drinking Two-buck Chuck with your bacon-wrapped filet mignon. Just bite the bullet and spend the extra hundred bucks.
