No prob. No need for the sarcasm, either.

Can't make you hold dictionaries in a corner over the internet, so I guess you're safe...

What's your opinion of the Philips 34pw8502/37? Bought recently from Best Buy as an open item, perfect condition, for $825.

Philips is underrated.. They make quality HDTV's IMO.. The model is a good one.. For 825.00 you should be thrown in jail.. Actually you could get it as low as 1,200.. The downside is it doesn't support 720p (wasn't listed on the specs sheet) & its pretty bare.. Few inputs & features.. 2 component out. 1 HDMI. 2 composite/ 2 S video (standard) Has a built in NTSC tuner so you get SD TV.. You will need to buy an external HDTV tuner to recive broadcast in HD.. No cable card.. BUT, for 825.00 its pretty damn awesome..

I wanted to buy a 30" HD with black trim, model name was just 2 letters, like "LM" or something like that. Looked really sharp, and the guy said it was a great buy. It wasn't in stock, so I haggled the guy down on the Philips, which was tagged at $950. Guy said he would get in trouble, that BB doesn't allow price changes, but that he felt I deserved a break because the TV I wanted, and that he talked up, wasn't in stock.
