I thought that the picture on my tv was kind of blurry though my living room tv. I assumed that it was because the TV is around 15 years old and maybe the output from my video card wasn't really up to spec.

Turns out that I actually needed glasses :p Everything looks really sharp now!!

haha, that's good..although a new tv might've cost about the same Wink

When I picked up my 37" LCD 1080p monitor, we had it for about a month before my girlfriend finally decided to put on her glasses to watch some HD stuff.
In her words "Oh wow! Now I see what you're talking about! This is so clear!"
haha, the tv had looked blurry to her for about a month but she didn't say anything. After that she stopped complaining about the money spent on it Smile

You guys are lucky. Without my glasses I wouldn't be able to find the TV, let alone watch it... Big Grin
