So I finally got the TV for my room! (pic)!
 

I got myself the Sharp Aquos 37" LCD (LC37DB5U)

I realized that 42" was too big, and 32" was too small, for the location in my room I wanted to put it in!

What do you guys think?

Is the box it came in made out or cardboard??? I think you forgot to mention that ;-)

Seriously Nice TV bro.

thats tight

I think that your spamming is getting better!

More importantly than what we think, how do you like it?

that's just a photo of your tv...where is the room?

Eh, it's okay. I've seen better. :)

Yeah I wanna see bdjuf in his yellow footie pajamas watching his new tv :)

Pretty nice TV. I just picked up a 30" myself, think I should've gone bigger though.

:1orglaugh Exactly what I was thinking...

funny ;)

Nice TV man!

How many times did you buy TV just for this month?

Looks good to me, pretty sharp. (pardon the pon) ;)

>>>jealous with my 27-in. Philips P.O.S.

Bdjuf, you should really stop wasting your money on toys and buy some real estate. Toys are great but when you see guys like Lars that have several rental properties in high end areas, that is what makes me jealous :)

DH

I saw on tv the other day that couples that have a tv in their room have sex like half as much as couples who don't. Something like that... I'm never going to have a tv in my room.

it would be cool to watch the superbowl in that TV

:thumbsup :thumbsup

nice catch

Looks good.

nice tv there

just anotha spammah

Change your name to "RevShare Dustin" and you may be able to bump it up to a 32" in a couple months.

nice tv :D tv's won't be to big... never... :)

really cool TV man...

sharp is the best.

Sorry to say this, but thats bad investment of money.

With the new Blu-Ray format on the doorstep, which will be standard and DVD will go out of production (just like DVD vs. VHS), anything below 1920 x 1080i is useless.

My advise to all who want to invest in HDTV and not regret it soon:
Do NOT listen to the salesmen, if they want to sell you a HD "ready" TV on sale. If it is below 1920 x 1080 pixels, then it is NOT READY for Blu-Ray!

Ain't that the truth?! :winkwink:

didn't you buy a tv not long ago?

Not really a fan of Sharp LCDs.
It's not bad though.

couldnt have said it better myself. i wish my friends thought like you DH, most of them tell me the exact opposite.

good looking tv.

tv is looking good but I doubt its ready for the future..

Who cares about the future, today? That TV is like $2k or less, maybe he can buy another one when Blu-Ray or whatever blows up?

first of all, a tv is never an investment. second, technology changes every day. if you sit around and say "im gonna wait for the new kind of tvs to come out" then you will never get one. when the new ones come out the price will be outrageous, and do you think there wont be something bigger and better coming out after that?

Maybe I used the wrong word, it should be planning instead of 'investment'.
Anyway, if you can afford a new HDTV every year or two, then its not a problem. But most people are not that wealthy (or as rich they claim to be), so I assume that when the average customer buy a TV, they plan to use it at least 4-5 years.
The TV technology itself changes all the time, yes, but what I am talking about is the compability with the new Blu-Ray format, which will probably be the standard for next 10 years. The compability is not an everyday technology change, but rather a generation shift. It can be compared with buying a VHS player when DVD players were introduced.

The Blu-Ray compability is already here, the producers and salesmen want to get rid of their old TVs, so my advise for planners is to spend some extra bucks instead of getting stucked with a non compatible TV. Its cheaper in the long run.

Is this your bedroom?

says the guy with many fancy cars :)

IMO when you're 20, living with your parents (?) and netting $15k per month(?) then it would be totally stupid to not "waste" anything on "toys"

i also prefer investments than toys but not buying any toys at all when you're young and have lots of spare cash, and waiting with that till you're old and retired is kinda stupid too

btw bdjuf i have been kinda busy last few days, i know you wanted to talk about domains... well, tbh its kinda hard, cause it's a very competitive industry, but feel free to hit me up again, maybe we can discuss it more if u have any specific needs or questions, or seriously want to invest in domains

If you were very very skinny, maybe. :Oh crap
