yes, I would agree, some 32" HQ TFT would look better than 200Mhz less CPU power

I don't know...
i'd like to buy a big LCD, but all kinds of things concering problems with hdtv on vista kept me holding back.
there's no need to hold back?

vista is not released, not final, not in shops, and most likely, will not be for the next 2-3 years;

Big LCD will work NOW, support in Vista WILL be there, or you'll just stick with XP,

1) A year wait for new MS O/S is norm so that drivers are more readily available.
2) If you are not into 64-bit now, there is no point to wait.
3) You work hard enough and deserve a nice treat; unless you don't think so.
5) HDTV is more or less for married men; and not single gamers.

It's always nice to hear the people in my cycle to spend big bucks.
As you can see I can't even count.
