一个LCD TV, 既看电视， 又看电脑， 不错！.......

Good idea! 我家LCD不大，才２０英寸，正不想端个重重的笔记本看朋友当的片子呢。

我老公琢磨着年底去买个大的。唉！小胖的托儿费不菲，一个月一个LCD大彩电。

回复二楼：

一个HDTV还不至于上升到男人，女人的问题上来吧？

大学打桥牌的时候，对桥牌皇后杨小燕的一句话印象颇深： 君之所好须纵情。只要负担的起，花些钱在你喜欢的东西上应该很值得的！尤其是对于湾区的工程师们来说，不论男女，工作辛苦，压力又大，报酬不错，却没有多少乐趣可享受的。过着这样的生活，是不是该自我放松一下呢。

看了蒋国兵的报道， 我觉得理解他，他一定是活得太累了。从农村的幼年时代，到清华的7年寒窗，到国外的美加双料博士，再到加国的潦倒供房，他吃过多少苦，虽然在旁人看来他很有成就，可比起他走过的艰辛，他又享过多少人生乐趣呢？ 如果说人生是来赎罪的，他的罪早赎完了，他想选择不再这么累的活下去，我们没理由在他事后怪他。

所以说， 和你老公好好沟通一下吧，让双方都作些自己开心的事，钱吗，花完再赚。身为硅谷人，拿出点“天生我才必有用，千金散尽还复来“ 的气慨来。

If your TV model is a HDTV one, say a L37HDTVxxx, all you need is to get a TV antenna, then you can get the free air DTV signal. My antenna is a free one come with my previous TV purchase.

There is a good web site about air signal and antenna choose, I will post it here when I find the link, it basically tells you what type of antenna and direction you should have to get a specification channel, according to your home address.

According to pcmag review, ZIVIO 32" is doing very well for viewing DVD, even better than the comparing Sony LCD TV. Make sure you are using component video output, if your DVD player is not HD model.

I guess you are not use the LCD as a PC monitor, playing DVD from PC would produce even better result than playing from normal DVD player's component port, as it is optimized for 1368x768 resolution.

For LCD vs Plasma, you are correct, plasma is good at larger size. If you do want a model larger than 42", your don't have much choices except going plasma. Keep in mind that, the biggest drawback for plasma, it can not be used as a computer monitor, due to its burn-out effect. For this, I never give plasma a consideration, as I am a computer fan, I would even play games on LCD TV. Also, although larger size, the resolution for plasma is not higher, that makes you feel the dot is bulky. You'd better get a HD DVD player if you go with plasma.

阿平说得好！

Hi 一江春水

i just got the TV from the same company, mine is 37" (I thought it might be too big, but it looks kind of small in the living room still). anyway, how did you get the TV signal? do u need to buy an Antenna? I don't have cable, and can't get anything except watch DVD...

I am also thinking about returning the TV for a bigger one, but all I can find at costco are just plasma TVs if I want a bigger one. I really can't tell the difference in picture quality, except they are more bulky, have you done any research to suggest that it's better to stay with LCD TVs (weight consideration aside)?

男人好像都喜欢HDTV。　所有到过我家的男宾一致认为客厅正中应该立个HDTV。

切，　还嫌女人花钱多，　男人是不买则已一买惊人。　这个东东够我多少年的脂粉钱呀！
