Being a good consumer

Just bought a 49โ€ณ 1920ร—1080 TV for $362 out of pocket. Really, itโ€™s more a big-ass monitor but the manufacturer calls it a TV so I will as well.

I remember when a 27โ€ณ TV was $500 for a decent one โ€” with a 480p resolution as thatโ€™s all there was.

And that $500 was in 1994 dollars, so more like $800 now.

Decided against 4K for the TV as there is nearly no 4K content out there yet, and wonโ€™t be for several years. As often as we move and get rid of all our of stuff to go jaunting, gallivanting, traipsing and peregrinating, it just didnโ€™t make sense.
