These are the LCD TV's I am thinking about...Samsung 26" Widescreen Flat-Pamel LCD TV W/ HDMI and Component Video inputs $1300 or Phillips 26" LCD HDTV Monitor $900 or Dell W2600 LCD TV $1100? LINKS below

Samsung 26" LCD TV Widescreen

Phillips 26" LCD TV Widescreen

Dell 26" LCD TV Widescreen

Also on a side note...my brother works at BestBuy and can get me a real good discount on Insignia LCD TV's? Are they good compared to the one's I have choosen?
Or if anyone could give me any other ideas for a better 26" LCD TV like the ones I have here... my budget is around $1200 at most.:confused:

CostCo had a beautiful Philips 32" LCD for $1299 last week.

I'd get the Samsung or Philips

Man that's expensive, my friend got a 32' LCD TV from Dell for $999 a couple of months ago, he must have got it on a really good deal

i dont see how LCD can be good for TV with the narrow viewing angle
if youre going to drop over $1000, get a projector, even if its making a small picture

I was gonna buy that Philips, but missed my chance. Sold out real quick.

He's obviously referring to ShadowBlade because if he'd actually seen a decent LCD TV, he'd know that viewing angle is not a concern anymore. Unlike this Dell Latitude LCD screen. :|
