Default Dell TV's?

I was looking at maybe buying a Dell LCD HD tv. I had good luck buying my computer with them, I was just wondering if anyone knows what their tv's are like.

I own a Dell TV and They are wonderful.

I recomend it, They're just as great as their PCs and They back up their products very well.

I own this one: Dell 37" LCD

I like it. One of the big pluses is the number of inputs- I think there's a total of 15; including 2 component and 2 HDMI.

Previously I had borrowed a Sony 40" LCD for Superbowl. The Sony was definitely better as far as response to fast moving images. However for $1000 less this was probably a better buy. Myself, I didn't "buy" mine; it was a door prize at a Stampede party last year.

The TV itself is made by Phillips. I think Dell gives Phillips a set of specs to use, as I've found this TV to be better than any Phillips that I've seen.

Currently I have my Bell 6100 receiver connected via Component cables. That's the only thing I have that has an HD signal. Can't comment on games. Sometime this month I will get the laptop's docking station attached and I can let you know how well it works as a computer monitor.

Edit- Apparently they also have these on display at Chinook somewhere too if you wanted to look for yourself.

I think that they have a booth at Market Mall as well. Not a bad TV from what I can tell...
