Oh my god
I sincerely hope this gets cheap enough soon. I want it quite, quite badly. I don’t particularly like those technology-tracking blogs (let’s face it: I don’t actually like any blogs), but I felt a strong and profound urge to say something about this.
My flat’s TV at university actually once achieved a luminance that must have been approaching the Brightside’s 4000 cd/m2 over a small area (it was almost painful to look at), but that was entirely in error, and quite worryingly so, too. It was like all the light from the screen had been funnelled into a single thin line. If by any chance you’re reading this, Alex, imagine that kind of brightness power spread over the whole screen. Yet it still retains the capability to have completely black portions. Fucking amazing. Not that I expect you to care; merely to understand how impressive this is.

Amazing description for a defunct TV. Albeit not on-topic here: the "common errors in English" link to the right is quite useful. Something I've always looked for in order to improve my English (to make it sound less obscure ;-))
I love that website. If I don’t let on that I’m using it, people think I’m a linguistic genius!
(Perhaps.)
Last time I checked, that TV was actually still in operation. In the end I concluded that it was the aerial socket that had packed it in – regular TV direct from the rooftop aerial was coming through basically as static, but everything coming through the SCART socket worked fine (including Freeview, which comes through the aerial but is decoded by a separate box, which uses SCART to transmit its output to the TV). Still, such dramatic faults would suggest it’s on the way out.
spam much?
Pardon?
Oh, I suppose so. Am I famous yet?
Get a job.
If you have one, get another.
I’m trying . . . more or less.
I would love to watch I Love Lucy on that bad boy.
