Well, I suppose I could update a bit, what about using an ex-government VCR97, now that was a big 9" diameter crt, very popular for home made TVs. Incidently the new PF1 format does not like 800x600 screen resolution :) |

| 443492 | 2006-04-04 02:47:00 | A few weeks ago I bought a Panasonic 32inch CRT www.trustpower.co.nz for $1250. It is wonderful. Unless you want a TV to dominate the room, I think this is plenty and far cheaper than flat screens. Great picture. | Winston001 (3612) | ||

| 443498 | 2006-04-04 05:33:00 | I like to be abreast of such matters and have not come across such info??? There was talk of flatter crt,but that seams to have waned. www.engadget.com There was a program on TV a couple of weeks ago too - don't ask me which channel - can't remember - and they said the same thing as Tweake says. They reckoned this too - hold out on these or other new tech TVs arrive in reasonable pricing. |

Seeing as how he has bought the old LCD technology. |

| 443500 | 2006-04-04 10:33:00 | Regrettably Cicero, only the wealthy residents in Swannanoa will be able to afford the new 50" SED displays. They plan on retention of LCD for smaller displays. SED apparently displaces Plasma, which is a poor resolution, power hungry technology anyway. Toshiba and Canon invested $2 billion in a joint-venture with initial plans for 3000 panels of 50" by August 2005. Seen any yet? Expect them to be cheap? |
