So, if you want a screen size that is vertically the same as a tv you
are replacing, you have to buy a larger size, if you are not smart or
alert enough to figure this out, and buy a tv with the same diagonal
measurement as your old tv set, the picture will be noticeably smaller
in the vertical direction and that much harder to see.

Just look at how much of the HD pic you see on a standard TV. You'll
soon figure out those black bands top and bottom take out a chunk of
size. I figured I will get the same picture size as my 27-28" SD TV
with a 32" High Def one, even with the reduced height, because it is
already being reduced by the broadcaster.

I don't like the flat panel TVs,because EVERY one I've seen,in stores and
sports bars,have improper geometry;
a circle looks oval,and peoples heads look flattened. the vertical was
being compressed.
it didn't matter what aspect ratio was being displayed.

Mr Yanik, this is physically impossible.I don't like the flat panel TVs, because EVERY one I've seen,
in stores and sports bars,have improper geometry;
a circle looks oval, and peoples heads look flattened. the vertical
was being compressed.
it didn't matter what aspect ratio was being displayed.
There are sets without this problem (generally plasma). Buy one.It's judder between frames of moving video content I cannot tolerate.
