Yeah so my old HDTV died last month, and I'm looking for suggestions for a new one.

I'd prefer it to be around 20" and have at around 3-4 AV ports with at least one being an HD port. Any suggestions on brands and stuff will be appreaciated.

Go to good will, get a TV that'll cost you 12$ maximum, take home, hook up, and enjoy.

We have a Sharp Aquos.

Very nice, I would recommend to anyone.
If you want a good deal, buy a floor model on sale and just get the warrenty extended for like another $20.
You'll end up saving a good $300-400.
That's what we did. Works great, no problems.
Except that Dad is an idiot when it comes to programing in things like the HD cable box, DVD player, etc. =D

Y'know I talking about this to a regular at my work, and he reccomended the EXACT SAME MODEL! o_O


@Eternal; I get about $500 per paycheck, so anthing under that is good.

I believe our TV was $600. Then again it was on sale, AND the floor model, AND we got a native friend to buy it on the reserve so it was tax-free. Whoohoo!

Wait, $12 is like £6. Surely that can't be right.

On a 20 inch TV, the difference between HD and SD isn't very noticable. I'd strongly suggest bumping up the size.

Granted, my eyesight is horrible and I'm not at the point of wanting glasses. So in 'my' case I can't tell the difference between SD and 720p until about a 40 inch TV. Sitting a respectable, healthy, distance away from the TV, of course. If you sit as close as I did while playing games when I was 6(the reason my eyes are bad!) then there'd be no problem.

Naw, Buru's right.
Find a good second hand store and you can find a TV for less than $20.
However, go to a store like Value Village and expect to play closer to $50 for a working tv.

My suggestion is to save up a little bit of cash and invest in a Vizio. I have a 32 inch LCD Vizio that I got Referb from Newegg for about 500 dollars, including shipping. It comes with a buttload of inputs, including PC RGB and 2 HDMI ports.

...Cost me 1499$

Works great, lots of ports, and out of your budget...

Good Will is like a thrift shop. People just give s**t they dont want to the stores and people buy the stuff for next to nothing.
