Was that the results when you asked the majestic search engine for latest technology?

I've been spending every penny I've got shorting Google stock since AtW announced Majestic Search.

I'm slowly starting to wonder if we might get a new TV - we have decent 42" HD-ready bought when full HD was still a premium and I figured a decent 720-line TV was better than a bargain 1080 one.

We're also equipping a 2nd sitting room and considering moving the old TV there.

Probably I'm now at the same cross-over point with HD Vs UHD; I don't want to spend a grand and I don't want a crap 4k set so maybe a decent HD set could be had for a bargain now they're not cool anymore... maybe something from a year ago?

Listen to Wibbly, a decent projector and a 100 inch screen will improve your life. Just imagine the detail you'll be able to see in your hot XXX 3D prawn flicks.

Surely a projector and 100 inch screen is for permies, a contractor would have a 100 inch flat screen that can be used without darkening the room?

(I've seen an LG 98-inch flat screen in the flesh. It looked reasonably good. )

Found it, much cheaper than I remember...

Erm.. there is still no UHD/4k broadcast standard.

Does that matter? The TV is just a display. The signal will be coming via an external box, I assume the input to the TV will only differ from HD in terms of resolution and possibly frame rate, but I could be wrong.

BT Sport has just started "transmitting" in UHD. (Signal over the internet, I think, and you need high-speed broadband to get it.)

I admit I know little about UHD, if there is some issue that means current display hardware won't be able to handle future signals, I'm happy to be enlightened. For example, I know it's not just a question of supporting UHD resolution, apparently very high frame-rates for sport are part of the appeal, so early hardware could conceivably fall short there.
