Finally upgraded the TV...
by shiki-jitsu » Sun Jun 21, 2009 5:38 pm
I picked up a 32" Vizio LCD on sale for $390 a Target this weekend. 
Only 720p, but at 32" that is fine. I have to say that my satellite TV looks like shit on it, but it's an old DVR box, and it's only being output as S-Video right now. I am no going to upgrade it to HD yet since we will be moving in the next couple of months and don't know if we will have satellite when we do (one of the problems of having to buy the equipment instead of renting it).
On my way out the door now to pick up an HDMI cable for my PS3 so that I can atleast finally enjoy my BD player as it should be.

Well I couldn't find any HDMI cables in any stores under $27 in stock thanks to all the father's day TV sales going on. I placed an order with monoprice and hopefully they will be here in a few days.

Jesus fucking Christ! Stop being a cockblocker DDM, and let him enjoy his new TV and BR discs. He doesn't jump your shit about the VHS, and he even offered to send you some he thought you might like. And all you can do is insult him? You my friend are a heel and a cad.
