Turd in a Box

So it's that time of year again. I must admit that I deeply enjoy both winter and the holiday season. I live in central Texas. It gets hot, very hot. So the winter is a respite from the glaring heat of any other season. Also, football is coming into full swing. Of course the Dallas Cowboys aren't doing phenomenal but at least we get to enjoy big HDTV sales until the Super Bowl is over.

I would really enjoy having a 50 something inch flat panel LCD HDTV (1080p of course). Internet ready with 3D capability would be nice. Especially if it had at least 2 HDMI (prefer 3-4) and a DVI port. The contrast ratio would have to be healthy and the refresh time would have to be equal to or better than 5ms/120hz.

If you can't tell I would absolutely adore any hardware manufacturer that wanted to send me a test model to Blog about. It's hard to write negative reviews on free models. Turd in a box? Was it free? Yeah?! Then I have to say it was a most excellent turd. I wouldn't be biased, I would definitely report the facts. It's still just a turd. So if one of you 16 people who have viewed the blog work at Samsung and you're in charge of marketing your Touch of Color series then you know exactly who to send your next demo piece to. Only a few days into the blog and I'm already shamelessly reaching out for free schwag. To redeem myself I've attached a photo with relative subject material.
