I am looking into buying an LCD tv. I have been looking at well known brands versus some entry-level generic store brands. For example, Target sells TruTech and Walmart sells Visco as their generic brands. Has anyone out there bought the generic brands? If so, please tell me your experiences with these. Have you had goodluck or bad luck? Is it really worth paying $1k for a new TV set.

A flat tube TV uses glass and phosphor to create a picture, it generates this by heating a cathode made of rare earth metals, or nickel…..
A Flat Screen TV set uses More Organic materials like silicon (glass) and plastic, but not the rare earth metals…
In theory the Flat Screen is safer for the environment over the Flat Tube TV
Reliability is pretty well known to be about 15 years for the Tube, but the jury is still out on the Flat Panel units….
Picture quality is good on both….unless you buy the lowest priced models…

I’ve been looking into 32″ flat panel televisions to mount on my bedroom wall — yet all the models I really like don’t have the built-in dvd players!
What are my other options as far as dvd players go? I don’t want to have to put a table or tv bench under the tv just to set a dvd player on it. A friend of mine mentioned putting a dvd player behind the tv? Is that possible?
Thanks!
