an HDTV <28" would be a waste.

1.Analog cable will look worse that digital cable, it generally costs more (but not too much more)
2.I've never been a fan of dlp (angle viewing), I know there are a lot of 1080p LCD's out now
3.get a progressive dvd player. The TV will upscale the image

He should wait until he's absolutely sure - the surgery is expensive, and converting an analog dad to an hd dad is also very risky.

Tell him to do it. Yes, it costs more, but it's worth it!
