Who doesn't have a HDTV?

[Marc Anthony]

I'll add my name to the not having HDTV crowd. My RCA 27" CRT TV has had its internal tuner crap out, and it's limping along as a monitor, with the cable box connected via RCA jacks - it's all very glamorous. I have a friend who recently purchased a 50" Sony DLP LCD TV (projection?), and, even with an HD source, I have to say that I can't tell that much difference between the quality. The text is sharper, but I haven't yet been able to formulate why I'd pay $1000+ for that priviledge.
