L33T · December 28th, 2005, 08:33 AM

50" plasma
MAC LT's with Prochamber and hi-flo cats

Those were my big ticket items. Lots of little things after that, clothes, gift cards and the like.

AtlanticBlue99 · December 28th, 2005, 09:48 AM

nice tv man. my dad got a 47" or something like that plasma tv and they are awesome.

L33T · December 28th, 2005, 09:56 AM

Oh man it's a different football game all together once it gets in HD!

Now I'm just pissed off at how slow the cable company COX takes to get new HD channels online.

At the moment we have about 12 HD channels, good ones like ESPN, CBS, DSC, TNT and more but we still DON'T have ABC, NBC, and FOX. Which is kind of strange considering ABC owns ESPN which we do have.

AtlanticBlue99 · December 28th, 2005, 10:04 AM

haha. yea, my dad was talking about how he payed all the money for a plasma and hdtv, but the cable companies have yet to give a better range of hd channels. they do offer hdtv in some starz/encore and hbo/cinemax channels now

Bossman351 · December 28th, 2005, 11:08 AM

I want a plasma tv pretty bad but I have a friend who works for COX cable and he advised me against it. He said that a bunch of the people he installed for complained about having to have the screen refilled after so long b/c the plasma gets weak and needs replacemant.

99mustang232 · December 28th, 2005, 11:13 AM

money, clothes, hammer, level, pocket knife, gift cards to best buy, baseball tickets (Orioles), tickets to see david copperfield.

AtlanticBlue99 · December 28th, 2005, 11:39 AM

yea plasma does need to be recharged every 7 yrs and it costs like 500 bucks to do it. the lcd tvs are really good though, but pricey as well

Don't worry I have "heard" about a new kind of television that will be coming out within the next 4-6 years that will surpass the plasma. So if you just got a plasma screen, don't worry, you may never have to recharge it!

AtlanticBlue99 · December 28th, 2005, 12:12 PM

they are making 3mm film projection tvs now too. they are not in production b/c cost is so much. these screens will be cleaer than plasma and able to roll up for storage

Get an off air antenna for local HD broadcast. Direct TV is in the process of launching new sats, I think they have 2 up now, and they should be 100% HD within the next year or so, including local channels.

L33T · December 28th, 2005, 04:34 PM

So OTA quality is good?
I'll look in to that then.
I want FOX HD big time!

That isn't the specific item I am talking about, that has been around for the past couple years, the consumer cost of them needs to go down.

But the public most likely won't opt for a projection television. It isn't too appealing to the average joe.

I am talking about something similar to the box on your stand that will be next gen for years to come. But it will only be available in Japan in 4 years, here I have no clue!

AtlanticBlue99 · December 29th, 2005, 11:08 AM

hmm. sounds pretty cool. i bet it will be expensive as hell too
