Hah...isn't CT also one of the highest per capita income states? Hey at least you got a home you can call yours.
Cablevision(my provider) has a decent amount of the HD channels for no extra charge, there are a few HD versions of sports network like FOX sportsHD, ESPN-HD, MSGHD and a couple others, but have noticed that only ESPN2 carry the 'other' sports that I normally watch, tennis, football(soccer)...but since I switched to Cable from DTV, I love the FSC for all the time football.
I would expect ESPN to only carry the USA matches. But we will see.
I too have a daughter going off to college later this year...I am hoping she gets a good scholarship offer. Its crazy what it costs now to educate a kid over 3-4years.Back to the Sony: I saw the 30" superfine pitch being sold now for less than 800$, and I am really tempted to just go with that and save a couple grand for now vs. getting that 42"NEC plasma I was attracted to...decisions decisions...lol

I really like all the games.
Yeah, CT is a high income state, but I'm in the average category.
CT has many rich towns, poor cities, and a some middle class areas.
I live in amiddle class town. Pretty nice , actually.Yeah I own my house, but I owe more than I bought it for ( 20 years ago ) , but that amount is still 1/2 the present selling price.
I just watched King Kong the other night on the Sony. I have a Toshiba DVD I bought as a closeout for $ 50.00. Hooked up to a 65 watt Onkyo receiver, and some polks . Sub, and surrounds.
The entire system costs around 1700, including cables.I just love the picture on the Sony. The sound is okay, not audiophile, but good enough for movies.
