 Try getting a decent TV. I have a 65 inch widescreen HDTV
 and a 32 inch widescreen HDTV. I have noticed that a lot of
 stores have cut way back on the percentage of 4:3 format
 TVs in favor of 16:9 format widescreens. The next time you
 need to purchase a TV, widescreen may be just about all
 there is to choose from.
