After visiting this forum for the past 3 months and reading up on tv's for the past year I have a question for everyone here.
Besides screen size, why would anyone buy a rear projection television?
I just don't understand it. They seem to be such a pain in the rear from what i've read that I don't know why anyone would buy one in all honesty. From what i've heard they usually require professional tweaking to get the best possible picture quaility, you can't play videogames on them for fear of quick burn-in, the image doesn't look very good if your anywhere close to the screen, and you can't really see the tv all that well from angles! Why would anyone want to deal with all those problems?
Please, don't be offended. I'm just asking a question because i'm interested in hearing people's opinions. I've got my own opinions and i've clearly stated them. I've owned a 32" Wega and a 24" Wega and I personally don't feel I could ever own a projection based upon what i've heard and seen with my own eyes. The image quality and clarity from all angles and distances on a tube tv just can't be matched by RPTV.
