Time for Some Upgrades - Maybe.

I was in a Best Buy today with my wife to look at a picture frame and ended up looking at wide screen televisions. The new LED models have a great picture and the new 3D sets, in my opinion, leave something to be desired. I found the peripheral parts of the picture, with the glasses on, to be disturbing. I watched a golf game and I felt my eyes trying to track too many objects at once and it was giving me some decent eye strain. I'm not ready for the kind out cash outlay yet. I was duly impressed with the LED sets however. They're low power, high contrast beauties with a thin profile to the back. I told my wife that we could move up in status with a couple of HiDef sets, a hi end surround system, a couple of Amish fireplaces, and one of those big rattan bladed ceiling fans for that Casablanca look! Of course she had to bring up the C word - cash, and that kind of put the kabosh on everything, at least for this week.
