I picked up Aerosmith for the Wii on Sunday for the $10. At that price it's a great deal. They finally came down to my price point :)

Amazon has Windows 7 on sale (pre-order) at a DEEP discount. Full version for $100, upgrade for $50. I've been running 7 on my laptop and it's been great so far.

They probably have a Blu-Ray release.

Season 5 was the first one they broadcast in HD.

Interesting, but in most instances that's only $5 off.

It is showing up as $647 for me.

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... d=10993796

Was it a one day deal?

Also, the in store price is $697. They wouldn't give me the $648 price :evil:

Should I still bite on $647? My wife is ready for an HDTV as our little 19 inch has run its course.

Well anything should be an improvement but you either have to get HDTV reception or cable/satellite with HDTV channels, which may require buying or renting a set-top or a DVR capable of getting HDTV channels.

Otherwise, you will find that non-HDTV channels look worse on an HDTV.

As for the brand or model, if you can afford more, look for a bigger size and a better brand. If you sit more than 6 feet away, look for at least a 46-inch or maybe 50-inch.

The next flat panel I get will run in 120 Hz. I've seen at Best Buy HDTV's running in 60 & 120Hz and the picture is night and day. With 120 Hz you get zero ghosting.

Also it appears LCD HDTV's are in for another across the board price drop within the next 6 months per the BB employee I spoke to.
