Searching for the right LCD TV

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.tv.tech.hdtv (More info?)

I am shopping for a 20- or 21-inch 4:3 LCD TV for my dorm room. Most if
not all of what I'll be watching is traditional-format, non-widescreen
coaxial cable, videotapes or DVD. I understand that the picture on an
LCD is less crisp than that of a CRT set, but would like to choose a
brand and type that minimizes pixelation. Thanks in advance for
suggestions.

I'm noticing most of the 20 and 21-inch sets have resolutions of either
640x480 or 1024x768. Is the increased resolution noticeable for non-HD
programming, or would the picture be relatively grainy in either case?
Thanks.

I bought a Sylvania 15" LCD TV set for my office desk from Amazon. Model #
6615LE. $289.94 with free shipping. Nothing fancy but does the job. Good
picture and the price is right. Read the reviews on the Amazon page.
