Just saw an endcap at the local Sam's Club last night, that had about a dozen of these Vizio 42" LCDs on it: Looked like a pretty good deal for the price. The sign with the price said "one time buy", so I assume this is a closeout? The chassis looked a bit like last year's Vizio's. Silver at the bottom and shiny black plastic around the screen. Model # is VS420, which seems to be new to me. The next step-up, Vizio-wise, was the 42" LCD w/120Hz refresh and it was $300 more. More expensive Vizio - Click here Any comments, complaints, suggestion on the cheaper 42"? |

Not everyone is up-to-date on the 120Hz craze, but that doesn't warrant pulling their leg mrvisitor, 120Hz is the screen refresh rate for newer LCDs. Check this out at Sam's Club: 120Hz LCD |

^And 200hz is on the way. There will always be something better on the horizon. |

120hz, jeez what a piece of crap, I'd never buy that worthless television. Picture probably jumps all over the screen. I think you only see every other frame. |

Thanks! I picked one up today at the Sam's at Franklin Mills, Philadelphia. They had about 10 more on the floor. The box says "limited edition". |

Arram said:you dont need a 1080 when the size is 42" Not a completely true statement, it really depends on the proximity to the screen. |

elaye said:Arram said:you dont need a 1080 when the size is 42" I agree but most people sit at least 10 feet away from their TV and there isn't a noticeable difference at that distance between 720p and 1080p on a 42". It is noticeable at 10' on a 50". |

........32" on the other hand, i'd generally say it doesn't matter.......but again only if you don't want it as a pc monitor, so there |

I'm thinking about getting this TV, but I have a hypothetical question... What would be better for a 42" TV that will be viewed from about 12'-15' away. 720p with 10,000 to 1 Contrast Ratio? Or 1080p with 1,000 to 1 Contrast Ratio? Thanks!! |
