if you do not have an hdtv by now, you are a loser. (more on losers in an earlier post)
do not save your money for later, use it now to watch programs in high-definition. and sack the cable you have, satellite is far better. you may be surprised to know that you already can receive hd signals over the air. in fact, those signals are far superior to cable, and better than satellite.
get more than one hdtv. spend your money, dont wait, you might die. enjoy what technological advances we have. these sets are getting pretty cheap too. for gods sake, with the price of gas, if you dont fill up ten times, you can buy a decent 46 incher. dont worry about what format, just get the biggest screen for the least amount of money.
if you are not sending money to help starving children in africa, then spend the shit on yourself. if you dont, then you are one cheapassmotherfucker.
you'll thank me later.
