The LCD acquisition project
I am hoping to buy myself a small [25 inches or less] LCD TV soon [within the next two months] on a budget of
up to R4000.
It will be replacing my PC monitor and television set.
What do I need to know about making such a purchase in order to avoid making an expensive mistake?
Which specifications are important and which are pure marketing hype?
thank you

You can get a 32" lcd screen at high felt corp for R4500. Thats What I bought for my parents and it is wonderfulOriginally Posted by phoenix
Hello and thank you, Tsar
Unfortunately I do not have room for a 32 inch display.
Sitting in front of one of those while working on my computer might also be
quite overwhelming.

Lol true. Well take a look at high felt and see what you can get. THey are always having specials. And don't get a brand you never heard of.
Samsung T260HD 25.5'' If you can get it someplace but I think they are replacing it. Not sure about price

The XL2370 comes with a hdmi port in in the back so it can be used as a tv with no problem.
But if you wane run a pc on a tv screen you will probably have to get a plasma as the only lcd tv's I have seen are 40'+ and expensive. I might be wrong though.
Here is a review for Xl2370 I ahve been doing lots of reading on it as I wanna buy one of them myself http://thecoolgadgets.com/samsung-le...2370-led-hdtv/

I have seen smaller LCDs.
I should have mentioned that the reason it needs to be a television set rather than
a PC monitor is so that I can connect my PS2 or Wii to it with their AV cables.
I see that the cost of this unit varies quite a bit.
