I have my huge box tv and have given tvs little attention for a couple decades. Now I need a new one and I'm baffled. I'd love some help- please talk slow and simply. I'm not a techie.
1. I'm so not getting cable or dish, ergo no paying for high def if people do such things. Will a HDTV image look weird if you're just plugging into your antennae? Some guy at Best Buy made me look at two screens and said unless I pay the extra service it will look all blurry and stretched out.
2. If I will spend $500 or $600, what should be my target characteristics or brands?
3. Any special instructions on mounting it to the wall? (Plan right now is to get those tilt bracket, find the stud, attach it, and work my antennae wire over to the TV. Then I'll get something clever to cover ugly wire.)
4. I'm thinking LCD? Any objections?
5. Any other cables and such that will make me spend more money?
Again, in a nutshell, I want a TV to mount to the wall that looks good and last for under $600 or so. It will just use my antennae. Advice?
