Samsung LN-T2332H 23" LCD HDTV — Community

There's an old adage that says "never shop at Costco when you're hungry." If you do, you'll typically walk out of there with way too many snack foods. We'd like to extend that adage to include "never shop at Costco when you've got an HDTV itch." It's just way to easy to walk out of there with a new television. That's exactly what happened to Braden a few days ago. He was at Costco, because, well who doesn't want to go to Costco? And of course, needing a new HDTV, happened upon the Samsung LN-T2332H 23" LCD HDTV. Having passed finance committee approval (the finance committee was waiting in the car), the set has since made a great addition to the Russell family abode. At a price of $499, how can you go wrong?

You've got to be kidding! A 23" can only give you HDTV if you use it as a computer monitor. If you watch it from further than 4', you aren't seeing HD. Take it back and go to Office Depot and get a 37" for $699.

We have no Office Depot locations, here, but Costco locations are plentiful-any other suggestions?

The TV is in my home gym, 37" is way too big. The 23" screen fits perfectly, and although the SD content doesn't look bad (i.e. watchable), the HD content sure looks better. Even on a 23" screen I'd rather watch a movie on a DVD than a VHS.

You'll notice in the review that we talked about the TV as a secondary viewing set, not a primary one unless you live in a small apartment or dorm room or something. For my gym, it works great. And HD looks much better than SD.

Jordanm: If you can wait until the pre-Christmas sales, you should be able to find $ 699 37" HDTV at a number of places. I expect to find one for my son for about $600 then.
