johnridleyWell, I finally gave in to pressure from the kids and ordered up a new TV. Last time I looked I did a bunch of research and didn't order anything. This time I did the opposite, I just went to Newegg, ran down the search parameters, and picked the new Toshiba 42" model. I wound up ordering it from an Amazon Marketplace seller, but I did go back to Newegg for the mount kit and some cables (a couple of HDMI and a VGA, for hooking up the DVD player and the MythTV box).
I guess eventually this will lead to trying to get the Myth box doing broadcast HD at least. I doubt I'll bother with HD over the satellite; mostly SD is fine for what I want it for. I'm betting that next year the HD channels will become part of the standard package, and we'll be able to upgrade the satellite receiver and get HD.
Anyway, I'll have a project when I get back from Duckon. It's shipping UPS ground so hopefully it won't get here before Monday.
