My buddy Greg and I went on a quest for a new TV, one to replace my 20th Anniversary Macintosh which has a built-in TV tuner but seems to crash in the middle of TV shows. I decided I wanted another LCD TV, in the 16:9 format (since we’re supposed to have HDTV forced on us any day now) but only about 15″ so it would fit on my table.

Looking for the TV took us to one high-end sound store, three musical instrument stores, and Skyline Hamburgers (as you can tell, I wasn’t really on a “mission”, as it were).

We did finally make it to Best Buy, who showed me a nice Toshiba, but they sent us from the NE part of the city to the western suburbs to find one to actually buy. In the end I didn’t see any on display in the western suburbs, so I gave up for now. My Mac/TV only crashed once tonight.

I think I’m going to look for a TV online. It’s much easier to shop online than date online.
