Looks like it's a moot issue. I called COX this morning and they admitted the pricing online is completely confusing and contradictory. Looks like it's only another 13 bucks a month to get HD on the new set. If you look at their website it looks like another 50!

You cant beat High Def.....but if you dont want to get it through a cable provider...some of the newer tv's have a built in HD tuner....you can usually pick up some HD channels through that....do a channel auto-program....you might pick up channels like 4-1, which is 4 in HD....some HD channels may be out of order as well....say nesn is channel 38....nesn hd might be 45-1...you have to go through each channel and figure it out

I don't watch much tube either but once I saw a race in HD there was no way I could go back.

I agree.

Also, if anyone wants a 26" (I think) TV with a bad tuner and sound it's free before I toss it. The picture tube is fine, so hooked up to a VCR and some speakers would work well for a shop or basement.
