Looking for advice on a HD tv for DVD use only

Posted by hukkfinn on April 26, 2010 at 11:53:53:
I want a big TV, like 50 inches or so, that can show my hi def movies. Won't need to show TV.
It will sit on a high cabinet so must look good when viewed "from below". There is plenty of room on top of the cabinet.
I'm on a *very* limited budget so Craigslist and Ebay are my first places to look.
What type of TV (LCD, plasma, rear projection) should I pursue? Any brand suggestions, or warnings on things to avoid?
Thanks,
Hukk
