Question

right now i have a vizio 27in that maxes at 1080i supposedly. but my standard cable shows look worse (less sharp) then the old tube we have.

First of all, don´t listen to that free playstation 3 nonsense, that´s how people get reaped off.

If you´re looking for a 26 inch (more less) tv then you don´t need it to be 1080p. In small tv (22-32) 720p looks perfect, you won´t notice the difference because it´s too much pixels in a small display. You start telling the difference in 40 inch or up. Don´t be cheap when buying a tv, I recommend samsung, right know it´s the best brand. ´DON´T  buy tv´s like vizio, insignia, magnavox, because they are a peace of ****, even if a 22 inch samsung costs the same as a 26 vizio, go for the samsung, believe me it worth it. Last but not least, try to buy a new model of the tv because, it´s always worth it when it comes to electronics, new tvs will come with a pc input also.
