50" Pioneer Plasma...780p

With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

John Wall's living room television. Suprisingly very small. Since he is a video gamer I would have thought he would have a television much much much larger than that one.

Gilbert Arena's set up at his old house. You can see the projector mount hanging from the ceiling and the outline on the wall where the screen was. Judging from the photos I am guessing the screen was around 120 inches. Not small but not very big either.

I like watching with friends so I go out to a good sports bar to watch sports today (obviously I don't watch as much as I once did) . . . heck, I haven't even hooked up the cable in my townhouse; I just get seasons of shows I never got around to seeing from the library -- finally watched Lost and starting Jericho.

Got a decent sized HD TV. Not huge, but big enough for my apartment. May upgrade though since I just got a promotion and raise at work.

I had one around ~40 inches, but I just got a great deal on a new 50 inch 1080P HDTV for $700. Just in time for football season. 8-)

Hey, if an unfair history stood in the way of everything we could do to engage the world, or even amuse ourselves, we'd all have to stay at home and read books -- printed on paper from wood that the trees didn't contribute voluntarily I can assure you.

The human species is an infestation that takes everything over and perverts it -- do you think the electrons in your TV volunteered to line up and send you an image?

Right now I'm thinking of Fred Hampton -- anyone know who he was?

:lol: I'm actually going to Game 3 tomorrow. Sucks that the first playoff game in D.C. in 80 years is a 1 PM game on a weekday though, have to burn a personal day to go.

Are you referring to "Black Panther" Fred Hampton?

Yes... it's a long story and I have no idea why I mentioned him here.

I was in his apartment a few hours after the massacre. There was blood everywhere and hundreds of bullet holes in the walls. From shots in not out.

You know what else sucks?

Being paid only a fraction of what your property is actually worth by DC so they can rush and break ground for the new baseball stadium. :evil:
