I got the fever…
March 20, 2007
… for the flavor of a flat screen.
Yeah, I’ve had this fever for awhile. But since I don’t even have cable (or satellite) how could I ever justify my love for a new tv? I couldn’t– until my price point was reached.
I was in Wal-mart (ew— HISS– EVIL EMPIRE!!!) the other day, and noticed that they had quite a few TVs on display. Including the LCD HDTV variety. I was instantly struck by an RCA model that had a fairly crisp picture. It was also 32″ (that’s the equivalent of four 8-inchers for you size queens out there!)
It was beautiful. And only around 800 dollars.
Yes, $800 is still a helluva lot for a tv… but prices are coming down. This gives me hope.
And who knows– maybe I’ll opt for the $600 version of the 28 incher.
P.S. I played my first ever xbox game at Walmart too… and I LIKED it! It was some driving game where you could crash into other cars to get them out of your way.
Once you go flat, you’ll never go back.
I occasionally pine for an LCD flat-screen TV. I’ll just wait until my perfectly good TV bites the dust.
i know which one you were looking at.. consider their other model in stock… its by ‘olio’, for around the same price…

yep everything looks better on a flat screen. Loving your blog
