As much as I don't care for Sony, I can't deny they make fantastic TVs.
Totally. My 6 year old 27" Trinitron is still in top shape and kicking ass. Too bad I actually notice crt flicker.. otherwise it would be perfect. (for SD non widescreen material anyway)

btw why do you not care for Sony? They are just a company that makes products. I normally could not care less what consumption choices i make.

All of the display technologies are dead. None have any real room left to grow. Too bad SED has basically sunk.

Tube picture quality *still* hasn't been achieved in anything other than SED.
SED..

I remember reading about that a while back. Sounds interesting if it doesn't cost a testicle.

You are out for a loooong wait because SED is almost dead. This is technology from the mid 80s, with patents owned by CANON and they failed to mass-market the panels.

Um. I know. My point was it is the best technology ever conceived.

No. That would be the microprocessor.

No. That would be the microprocessor.

Uh, if we're going beyond the scope of the thread ( displays ), that would be the brewing system.
