Bought a New HDTV!

Well I finally broke down and decided it was time to get into the world of High Definition Television. I just bought an XBOX 360 Elite and was tired of everyone talking about how great it looked in HDTV. It was time to find out for myself.

So over the weekend, I received a $200 coupon from Circuit City and went looking. With a budget of under $2000, there was a large selection of televisions to choose from. The selection of TV’s was further narrowed down because of size limitations in the room it will be placed in, as well as wanting a TV larger than the Current CRT model I had. With those limitations in place, I was looking for a 40-50 inch plasma or LCD.

After reading extensively about the differences between the two, I decided to go with the 40 Inch Samsung LCD HDTV (LN-T4061F). I was looking for numerous HDMI connections, 1080p resolution and a nice cosmetic look and this TV has it all. The final cost was $1994 which was under my budget (barely).

I will be getting HD Cable later this week and will post how it looks. I have hooked up the 360 to it and it is amazing. I’m waiting for the 1080p games to come out, including Halo 3.
