We can't answer that question for you, but we can provide some basic information that may help you decide."

    I've heard that once you watch porn on HDTV, you won't have it any other way. Oh wait...

    Something I've noticed about HDTV is that you almost have to look at the screen from a distance to see the most quality difference.

    Having your face pressed up against the glass does make it difficult to judge quality differences.

    Just throw out your TV and do something better with your time... I'm boycotting them since 2004.

    So you're that guy!

    My advice is never to watch a foot ball game ever, under any circumstances. And that goes for all the other stick and ball games as well...
