I have been waiting for this for the last 20 years. > cool off time after a few hours. Of course this is not entirely a bad > thing, especially if you want to control your TV viewing. I don't need a TV. I need an immersive display for virtual environments (Second Life, OpenSim). And, occasionally, HD movies (though I haven't watched a movie in months, admittedly). > Cheeni *who thinks TV is over rated and found most happiness during 3 > years of TV less existence, but sadly right now has a 12 year old CRT > at home* My only CRT is sitting in storage unused, awaiting unanticipated use or, more likely, recycling.
