Damn you Off Topic!

<< We have a few Video Only's here, I like how you can reasonably bargain them down. Trust me Russ I know the temptation, for weeks I've fought the urge not to buy a 32" WEGA. Fortunately (or unfortunately) tax season is here and I owe Uncle Sam big. >>



Don't you mean the urge to buy?

 

[FreshPrince]

go brag somewhere else!

/me goes back to my puny 21" monitor

Oops, thanks for catching that.

[TallBill]

Hey, you've got me by two inches there.

You know another thing I like about this new set? No more adapter boxes for the DVD and VHS players that were necessary on my old set (no a/v). No more needing to get off my ass to flip the switch between the two.

[Yo Ma Ma]

Woohoo! I'll be right over & bring the popcorn

Does it have PIP with 2 tuners?

My 27" Toshiba has PIP (I remember paying $50 extra for this feature) yet I've never used it.

 

[N8Magic]

Welcome to 2002!

Nice TV, BTW. May I ask what you paid? (it must be the Ferengi in me)

 

[Russ]

<< Does it have PIP with 2 tuners? >>



Yep, it has PIP. Someday I might even figure out what the hell that is.

<< (I won't let him get anything bigger than 27") >>



Funny thing is, that - or a 32" - was what I was planning on when I went shopping. But, this damned store had every conceivable TV and every size in the world on display and, after looking at the bigger ones, I just couldn't get the smaller one.

If any of you guys have a store called Video Only in your area, check them out. Not only is the TV selection amazing, the prices are good. This pup was $1399, about $200 less then everybody else.

N8Magic - Let's hope Russ has an Amex Blue so he can go make an easy $250, assuming he can find it for cheaper elsewhere.

Nope, used Franklin Greens.

Compensating for something Russ?

P

 

[RossMAN]

No cc with cash back rewards? Could have earned an easy 1% but nothing talks louder than Benjamin's.

 

[Russ]

<< Compensating for something Russ? >>



Yeah, for nine years of crappy 19" viewing.

RossMAN,

I don't use credit much for personal purchases. Use it a lot for the business, though.

I got pip on my 27" ProScan, used it about 4 times and have never used it again.

I always check goodguys for a price match, they have had free shipping going on for awhile and have had good prices.

 

[Russ]

Hey! It just dawned on me what PIP is. Picture In a Picture, right?

Russ, NCNE

 

[cuteybunny]

nice, but i think i watch enough tv as is on my 20'. I'll pass.

 

[etech]

Russ, RTFM

Yep, PIP is picture in picture.

Boy nothing gets by you, even in your old age.

Nice set Russ, I still have a 27 inch RCA TV from who knows when
I have had this thing for probably 6 years now. It still works great though.
I would love to have a 40+ inch set, but it will be awhile before I get the money for that, plus everything else I want/need.

 

[urameatball]

PIP is the best...
I use it almost every time I'm on TV....
probably because I can't do less than two things at once... it annoys me!
