I do not sit in the front row of a movie theater and I wouldn't suspect 
I need a 50+ inch screen either! The ~32" models seem to be about the 
right size for the space I have here now. I have the current TV hooked 
into the stereo so I get nice sound from the system.

Another choice I have here is that I get Netflix's video on demand 
service so it would be nice to be able to watch those films on the HDTV 
rather than on my computer screen. There's an HDTV out ****t on my video 
card and I'm wondering if that cable can be 15 feet long... but that's 
just another thing to ponder here.

Just yesterday my buddies over at whatyououghtoknow.com made a video on 
just this topic and between you all here at AFCA and that, I think I've 
a good foundation to work with - though it is still quite confusing. 
Keep in mind, I'm the guy who can't figure out a 1040EZ form.
