    If ever a threads pictures make it look like a bunch of guys without wives, THIS thread is it.

    My wife owns the living room, I have 3 HDTVs in the house and not one is the living room TV.

    However, I do have a 101" HDTV outdoor theater screen using an NEC projector with native 1280x1024 resolution, capable of 1600x1200.

    And a Dolby surround sound system to go along with it. My neighbors would hate me but they get to watch all the games on it with me.....

    :D

    I am still waiting on a bid to raise the roof on my garage and put in a proper media room, but my wife is not sure we need it....HECK NO, we don't need it, but I NEED IT !!

    Office: 32" LCD Westinghouse
    Xbox 360
    HDTV receiver

    Master bedroom 37" LCD Westinghouse wall mounted
    DVD/VCR combo - Daewood
    HDTV receiver

    Game room: 37" LCD Westinghouse wall mounted
    DVD/VCR combo - Daewood
    HDTV Receiver

    It is all about the outside theater at my house, especially in the fall and spring, right now it is WONDERFUL out side.....and I got the 101" pull down screen for like $60, and the rest of the equipment, I got when I left Gizmondo...wooohoo, including both 37" LCD screens !

    57" Toshiba HD rear projection
    Toshiba DVD player with HD upconvert (hdmi connection to TV)
    I needed a component video hub to hook up my PS2, Gamecube, and cable.
    Only two slots on the TV. :confused: At least I've got one more for PS3! :D Yay!
    Don't see a need for surround sound. The TV has a big whoppin speaker. But I may spring for it sooner or later.

    You will be hosting viewing sessions of rockets games for the upcoming year. :D

    Watching anything on a 14 inch rubics cube is a bit of a b****.
