Hate to burst your bubble Bert, but people are buying these second and third sets primarily to watch regular old TV. It just turns out that the sex appeal and wife factor of flat panels that can hang on walls is a huge benefit over a bulky piece of glass. A close friend just replaced a 32" CRT with a 40 inch LCD panel. He did not remark about the picture quality. He DID complain about how heavy that old CRT was, and wondered how he would get rid of the thing.
This would have happened anyway, without HDTV. Regards Craig ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways:- Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at FreeLists.org
