I'm not so sure. You said in this forum, some time ago, if the flat screen went bad within a year or so (if memory serves me correctly, you were referring to your 32" set you got after buying a new car), you would replace it with an RCA CRT set -- an RCA ColorTrak 2000, again IIRC, because you were not that thrilled or impressed at the time with HD television. However, you will have to have a cable box, probably digital, on your ColorTrak set if and when it replaces the flat screen, so there will be no escaping DTV -- even if you use the box with a standard CRT set.
