14"?

have you travelled by time from the 1960's?

i think the smasung 42 was about 700 quid and the sony 50" about 1200 3 years ago

you have got to shop around a bit

i use cnet for up to date unbiased reviews on techy stuff

the TV i bought was a Sony kdlw a1 2u, list price was over £3000, got it for £2.500 on kelkoo at the time, the largest LCD on the market. its a good TV but would never pay that sort of money again for a television, once paid £350 for a DVD player (Sony). when first got together the girls only cost £20 from asda, every pirate etc, plays it. the Sony, Glasgow region only. I`ll never spend that sort of money on this type of thing again. TWAT :O

I spent 2.5k on my TV but only £40 on my DVD player - it plays everything I chuck at it (downloaded files etc) and it upscales. Bargain.

Yup, I agree with the dvd thang, I paid £600 for a video years ago, :p :p
Then I paid £70 for a dvd last year and its knackered, so then I bought a one for £20 at asda, still going strong.

I prefer a good old lady-boy to a TV

Ive got a Sony Bravia 42" in the living room for me Sky HD sports and a Toshiba Regza 37" (optimal for PS3) in the play room with cinema sound set-up (she gets her 'neighbours' , I get blue-ray surround :) )

thats the thing phil, it wasnt a porno.
it was something like sin city, a hollywood blockbuster
anyway dont bother with them anymore

if the chinese lady turns up on site or the pub,i say "i'll buy it if your in it?"
that normally kills the sale
