I still have (and use) a 13" Panasonic CompuFocus that I grew up with.  I used it for all my needs just until last summer when I upgraded to a 19" but I still use the 13" for my Wonder Wizard.  Oddly enough, I found an almost identical TV set in the trash a few months ago.  I took it home and hooked it up along with my other one. Unfortunately, it broke a couple months later. 
Never mind about still having the 13", it just blew up on me.  I was just innocently playing some Lost Luggage and it started making a scary screeching noise and I could see sparks inside of it.  Damn, I'm really depressed about this, it was like a good friend to me.   Cry

Just go out in the backyard, bury her, and go to Wal-Mart.

Hey, a quick reminder that as a result of the "Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005" all US broadcasts will be required by law to be in High Definion on February 17, 2009.  Most American consumers should have HDTVs by then and prices should be lower.  I expect to see a lot of older fat, heavy ones out on curbs so I'm gonna start keeping my eyes open over the next few years.  I wouldn't mind having a few more televisions.  Especially for my idea of a game room with multiple seperate consoles and televisions for LAN play.

As well I believe at around the same time TV's will no longer have coaxial, composite or s-video jacks anymore as well, it being an industry wide decision to drop them. I imagine there will be workarounds for legacy support but it wouldn't hurt to have an extra set or two stashed away all the same for your next 30-50 years of playing.  Tongue
