I think most will agree that Christmas as it was when I was a kid has changed dramatically. It has turned from a glad to get anything to a give me the latest gizmo the manufactures tell you that you can’t live without. So my family has decided to go with the flow reluctantly. Now rather than buy someone something that you think they will like only to see it on a table on the receivers front lawn near a yard sale sign. For the last couple years we have been buying our selves our own gifts. At Christmas dinner we tell all what we purchased no matter how frivolous or expensive. It works out well in the respect that if a family member is tight on money he/she won’t feel bad that they couldn’t afford a gift for all. And if anyone doesn’t like his gift they can only blame themselves.
This year I jumped the gun a little due to the success of our Patriots and purchased a 37 inch LCD Resolution 1920 X 1080 Sharp Aquos. Most my life Sharp was considered the dredge of the electronics products and only sold in stores like Grants, JM Fields or K Mart. I usually purchased Sony or Kenwood stuff. Well after a lot of review reading Sharp had outstanding reviews. Although still skeptical I ordered it through New Egg. I paid for 3 to 5 business day shipping and it arrived next day. Unreal and cool!! Since the arrival was very premature I didn’t have time to get the cable box HD upgrade. So I found a set of rabbit ears and fired it up. There are no words to describe the picture although amazing or fantastic could be said as understatements. Even the non HD channels were great. If you are thinking about getting an LCD or Plasma TV this year then do yourself a favor and don’t go to your local Best Buy or Circuit City as they all look great being feed by a store Beta disk for that very reason. Read what other people are saying about their sets. Pros and Cons.
