# Our telly is 15 years old and going strong.
I don't see the point of getting a flat screen, as it won't last 5 minutes before breaking, no doubt.

Mrs Vagabond's sister's got a 48' widescreen HD USB Wingwang Overdrive Mentalist, and they've had to replace it 3 times in the past 7 months.

I don't think I know anyone with a flatscreen without a similar story.

It's just more landfill sold in the name of football.

# I think some people just get unlucky, I don't know anyone who's had such problems with flatscreens

# this
I'm hoping I can ease myself into the world of fancy flat screens before my currently 13yo trusty 32 inch widescreen gives out. I don't want to have to rush into anything.

Mind you there's nothing I watch that would be enhanced by HD.

# Yeah, my Samsung 32" broke just recently.
Cost about £130 to fix it. :(
