This was my original thought. Then the convergence on my ancient RPTV started to go south and I didn't want to waste money trying to get it fixed.I almost blew $5K on 65" CRT, but instead got talked into a far more expensive HD2 DLP Front Projector w/110" screen. The visual impact is much bigger but I have room light control issues so daytime viewing is problematical.
I try to only use the FP for serious movie/HDTV watching; routine watching is barely tolerable on the old RPTV. I still hope to replace the old RPTV with an 65"+ HD RPTV in the next few years (again for routine/daytime viewing). I'm going to hold out as long as I can as the price/diagonal inch continues to drop on HDTVs.
Oh yeah, DLP works for me, the LCDs I've seen had too many motion artifacts. Last time I checked, CRTs still had the best PQ if you have the space (and muscles to move the stuff). I don't see rainbows but some of my friends have with DLPs. you'll have to judge for yourself. Plasma ? too expensive, unclear reliability issues, and not sure the colors are quite right.
I'll wait... the digital displays are only going to get better and cheaper.
OTOH, you gotta make a move at some point. Same dilemma with computer upgrades.
