    Sharp a safe brand?

    We're looking for a cheap/decent 27" CRT with no vcr or dvd built in to put in the family room. Found a 27" flat screen sharp for $229. Just want to make sure its not an "RCA" and go out after a year. Should I stick to proven brand like Sony or Toshiba when it comes to CRT?

    HDMI questions

    If a DVD player is HDMI does this eliminate Composite cables? or does it run off both? I have digital cable, does my box need to have hdmi connection? should I call the cable company? What if the TV has a built in HDtuner does this matter?
