And not go blind watching hulu instead of TV like I do. Maybe from my bed which is 4 feet away it would be nice to lay down. A mans flat screen is a very basic thing. We all used to pray for plasma. But I hear no one watches TV any more. So that makes our computer monitor the key thing. In America a standard greeting was "how's i our car?" Now I think its "How's your flat screen?" Shimmering nicely thank you. Its had its thousand mile Spyder tuneup.
