The wife wants a big screen TV-
I don't watch it that much anymore so I've been putting it off until I build a new AM2 system
B)

Speaking of these new TV's, is it worth it getting HDTV? will it work with cable or just off the air?

HDTV is definately worth it.
They come both ways- with and without tuners. If they have their own tuners you don't need a cable box but can hook it up to an antenna or cable directly and change channels with its own tuner. Otherwise you can save $100-$200 and get one without a tuner- but you must have a cable box for it to work ( which most of us have now anyways)

My TV is supposed to be HDTV compatable, but i dont have a box, i just have the cable right into the TV

I just bought a 2000 Corolla because my old 89 Mitz had a breakdown after we were run off a freeway. But it was a nice upgrade, and now I don't have to worry about having problems getting to work as much.
