I have been a subscriber of Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine for over 10 years, on and off. Just got my May issue and they wrote a story about HDTV. The article indicates that maybe now is the time to consider it. Sounds...

Did you see WDTN news tonight? Although Guy Fogle never verbally pointed it out, his graphic giving the time of the Super Bowl included info. about watching the game in HDTV on Channel 50!
