by Glen A. I finally did it. Call me foolish. I probably am. I went out and bought the biggest LG to date (for us, anyway), and while it replaces the old Sony rear projection HDTV we had, it wasn’t because the Sony was finally going on the fritz. Actually, far from it. I’ll explain. [...]
by Glen A. Readers of this site, or at least the ones who like to look at televisions, will know I’ve become a fan of LG. LG is the company that makes parts and develops systems that are found in many of the LCD TVs today under different brand names. That was one of the [...]
by Glen A. Late last year, I wrote about a foray into television buying that brought home our first LCD TV, a 32″ 720p LCD HDTV by LG. It was the first television purchase in over six years, and might not have happened then if not for finding a way to have both cable internet [...]

Truth to tell, I really don’t like lots of small pieces and a lot of instructions. I especially don’t like it when pieces don’t fit, [...]
By Glen A. It never fails. You buy an upgraded DVD player that does HDMI. However, your TV only does DVI. So, you buy an adapter to turn a DVI cable into HDMI on one end. But then, you buy a Xbox 360 Elite, which also has HDMI, but you want to route your sound [...]
