So the heading sounds dumb but I have a math question and I stink at math. I have been looking at a 32 inch Sanyo HDTV at Wal Mart for $$$. I currently have a 25 inch RCA tv. The Sanyo is HDTV but there is no HD content anywhere near me. I watch a lot of DVD's and this tv does the squeeze trick and I just found out what that was. I was wondering how much viewing area I would gain on letterboxed movies both horizontally and vertically. If I watch regular tv I can do that math. At least my brain is gone totally mushy. I really need to cut down on the beer

The 32" 4:3 set gives a 16:9 image area a little smaller than that of a 30" 16:9 set for comparison.
