I recently changed over from a 32" analog/CRT TV to a flat screen, 42", HD LCD TV. Local store had them new for $700. My TV comes from a satellite dish via Direct TV. Regular TV does not look as good on the new TV unless I shrink the image down a bit and then it looks just as good as it did before. In fact, there's a large menu of custom controls to change the image - but I don't want to mess with it. With DVDs, it looks great. Overall, I don't think picture quality is any better than the old tube-TV. But, that's not why I bought it - I got it because most DVDs we rent are on widescreen and I got sick of the dinky little letter-box in the old TV with part of the screen not even getting used.
I also was under the false impression that LCD TVs use less electricity - and since I'm on 100% solar, I'm always looking to cut down our use. Now, after some checking, I find out they use, more-or-less exactly the same amount of electricity per square inch of screen.
In regard to the coupons - just got mine. They had two months to be cashed in, but I used them right away at Walmart. Two converters wound up costing me $10 each, out-of-pocket - but overall total was more like $40 each which is nonsense. Those converters seem to be very overpriced - I'm sure due to the stupid coupons.

I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
