Just a comment on the current state of electronics.
When we first started getting serious, Mrs. Mac turned me on to shopping at Goodwill. If you haven't been there, well I can relate to the thoughts of "Ewww, who would want to buy someone else's stuff?" But, I've come around and found there are some killer bargains to be had.
Anyway, I've noticed over the last few months that there are a large number of big televisions showing up. And I'm not talking non-name brands. Sony, Toshiba, etc. 26" and up. Multiple inputs, including component and S-Video. Pristine condition.
I'm guessing that since most folks have turned into flatscreen junkies, they are dumping their old tube sets.
So, if you need a nice screen for the bathroom it might behoove you to hit up the Goodwill store.
And FWIW, I'm still kicking myself for not snatching up some killer speakers I saw a few weeks ago. :BH
