So I'm looking at getting a new TV, but cant see anywhere out there that gives real dimensions of a set. IE if I buy a 42inch tv, just how big is that? 30 inches wide? 35?

Anybody any ideas or links?
The official specs from the product description on the manufacturer site for a given model should provide that information I would've thought? I'm pretty sure I got the dimensions for my plasma from the Pioneer site.
Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?
agreed for a particular model, but I was after something more general. The reason for asking is that I have a limited space to fit the tv in and wanted to get the biggest I could for that size.

I don't think there is anything more "general". I had to go out with a tape measure in the end and measure the TVs physically. It was a toss up between a 26" Sony and a 26" Panasonic, with the Panasonic being about 4" narrower overall than the Sony due to having the speakers located under the screen.

As Svalbaard says there can be a lot of variation in absolute width at a given screen size - some T.V.s have quite a wide surrounding bezel, while other don't.

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
