My coworker is moving into a new house and is finally replacing his aging projection TV. He went to best buy last night and ended up buying a $3200.00 samsung hdtv 1080p 120hz lcd, an $80 4ft hdmi cable, and a $150 power conditioner/surge protector.
Before he went, he asked me what he should look for in a TV. I told him to choose the TV with the picture he liked the best and don't pay attention to the price tags. He pretty much did the opposite :) He got talked into the samsung by the sales guy. I asked him what the 120hz did for him. His reply, "I don't know, but it's what's coming in the future". I asked him if he knew the difference between 1080i and 1080p. He said, "No, but the sales guy said that 1080p blew 1080i out of the water". I asked him if he knew what the power conditioner did and he said, "No, but the sales guy said that I really needed it." He also asked me if he should pay $300 for a guy to come out to his house and do a color calibration. I just shook my head in disbelief. It's amazing how gullible people can be. Of course, this is the same guy who didn't want one of the new dell optiplex machines (the smaller 14x14x4 ones) because it was smaller than the tower underneath his desk so it probably wasn't as fast. -- "Instead of building newer and larger weapons of mass destruction, I think mankind should try to get more use out of the ones we have.", Jack Handey ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:249163 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
