    Which TV to buy?

    Not sure what this means but I won't want any of my channels dropped. Excuse my ignorance. >>I would go for a 720p TV at that size, because you won't really be able to distinguish it from 1080p. Plus, high definition cable TV only outputs at 720p, anyways.<<

    Which TV to buy?

    I was looking at the Vizio at Walmart in that price range especially since it's only blocks from my house. But now that I understand a little better, I will keep the 720p in mind. I am sure I can make a decision based on your suggestions. Thanks so much folks!
