Re: [LUG] OT Digital TV

 

Ignoring the content quality of digital tv (and how easy that is to do) when 
I've looked at things called digital TV's they've always looked like boxes of 
bad pixels at a stupidly high cost. Anything larger than about 28" in a room 
less than 20' long and I get a collection of pixels not an image. OK I can 
see the image but tend to notice all the aliasing etc - and on some of the 
bigger ones you can almost see the grouting!
I'd much rather look at a 20" pc monitor at 6' than a 40" tv at 12' - and it 
would probably be cheaper to buy the whole family a laptop so they can watch 
what they want from a central server. And then take them on a Caribbean 
holiday with the savings!
