# You would if you hadn't lost your glasses
To be honest you really need a 42' tv or bigger, some say 32, but the difference is negligible at that size unless you're sat on top of it. Antiques road-show always looks incredible.

# *obligatory deep fanny/cock gag
My tv is only a 32" but it's CRT (old big tube thing) it's 720p but the picture quality was a lot better on the few crt's that where made to display it.... that was until the LED tellys came out, they are really quite beautiful with the right source.

# Same here, I had a 47" LCD that died....
I did get it repaired (power regulator kept going in it) but that has ended up in my bedroom as comparing the pictures the crt was a lot cleaner and more vibrant.

# I didn't know there was such a thing as a 720p CRT
I still have a tube, but I think I may finally go HD during "Boxing Week" sales as I'm tired of all the widescreen TV signals being cut off on both sides of my screen.

# They are thin on the ground, but Toshiba made a few, Phillips and Sony.
(and I believe bang & olufsen) When I got this it was either 720p crt or 1080i plasma, and the price difference between the two was about 7 grand!
at the time most plasmas only had a 10000 hour life span, and for a TV worth 10k that's just stupid!

# I bought my CRT only about 6 years ago
at the time, it was the last CRT model on display, but all the low-def signals looked like shit on the more expensive LCD screens. But now everything is widescreen/HD and I'm an anachronism.
