My family just got a new 73" Mitsubishi 73732 DLP Rear projection TV. It was a steal at a little more than $3,000 for both the stand and TV.

The picture is great! It looks equal to any plasma I've ever seen and is very bright. Only problem is we have it in front of a sliding door and it blocks out most of the light. [:p]

I'll have some pics up later when I have more time and better lighting.

Thats sweet, all i have is a 42" LCD, from Westinghouse, it was a steal too at only 1,000, on sale right after christmas. I still like it a lot, it's very clear and i love HD, but 73", thad be insane...

I have a 52 inch Panasonic Plasma. Regular TV is pretty good, but HD is just absolutely amazing on it!

That picture is a little deceiving though I think. The ceiling in there is quite tall, and it makes the TV look quite small.

We have a 37" Olevia HDTV. We realllly should've gone with the Westinghouse one because it can display 1080p for the same price

The only time when it is annoying when you play with more then 2 people.
if i am going to play with more then 2 i'm going to the Tv in the living room.
