Can a guy who still watches a 21 inch TV with a picture tube (yeah, I know) 
find happiness with a 32 inch LCD TV? For movies, we have lately been using 
my wife?s ~1900 x 1000 computer screen. A 32 inch TV would fit nicely on the 
stereo cabinet in our living room. We?ve just been on a trip, and the 32 
inch TV in the rental house we stayed in seemed big enough, at least 
watching ?character movies? rather than scenery movies.

I keep reading how to be a really cool kid, you need at least a 65 inch 
screen with 4K and QLEDs and zone brightness and blah blah blah. I?m 
honestly not sure how much those features would matter to me. Of course, 
being a photographer, they might matter more than I think. But a bigger set 
would totally dominate our small living room, says my wife. We sit about 
8?10 feet from the TV.

Those of you who have been through this process, what do you think?
