Looking to buy your first HDTV but don't want to mortgage your home? PCWorld.com has an in-depth article that looks at your HDTV options in the $500-to-$2000 range. One of the great points in the article is:
Another decision that you should try to make early on is whether to go with a traditional 4:3 aspect ratio or with the newer 16:9 wide-screen format. Although most HDTVs have a screen ratio of 16:9 (which is closer than 4:3 to the format of most feature films), some cheaper HDTV-ready 4:3 screens can show a letterboxed 16:9 image. You might even prefer watching this way, especially when you consider that the majority of commercially broadcast content is formatted for 4:3 screens. Make sure that you look at both types of screen before you buy.
Overall, the article is a great starting point for someone buying their first HDTV.
