got a new tv! (1 Viewer)

[Tony_Woods]

I picked up the 27" flat screen Akai from Sams Club for $380 after tax yesterday. So far it looks great. I adjusted the picture with video essentials. Playstation 2 games look nice hooked up via S Video. I know this TV has the 16x9 squeeze feature, but I am still unsure on what it does. What are some DVD's that can use this and how do I use it?

Excellent little writeup Chuck; clear, simple, and to the point!
Congratulations on your buy, Tony. Doing a quick search on the forum, and you can see there are quite a few members who are excited about the Samsung flatscreen, and it's Akai equivalent. Keep us all up to date on how you like the set, and let us know if you have any problems, it's amazing the kinds of questions HTF members can answer!! I'm sure you'll be quite happy with this set!
