No, she's the supervisor. It only took 15 minutes to hook up and no bad words were used.

You will love the HD, and hate standard definition broadcasts.

When I first looked at these, I saw the Aquos 32 which I like alot. The clarity is unbelieveable, I can look at it across the room without my glasses. Now thats progress right there.

Yeah now that you point it out. Rule 1: You shouldn't own things older than you.

Cool "Bombe Chest" TV stand too!

The cat probably isn't impressed because you can't lie down atop a flat panel!

I'm so happy for you, Mistress. I guess we won't be seeing much of you on the forum for a while, til the "new" wears off that massive TV . . .

It's funny you mention that, when we had our 30" tube that was one of our cat's favorite napping spots. When we bought the flat panel home, she jumped up on the stand and just started staring at the new tv and the lack of a napping spot. She wasn't pleased.
