Yep, Toshiba was notorious for putting SVM into everything just because it made the set "pop" on the sales floor. Thankfully the place where I worked had other tech savvy guys like me, and we actually put a bit of effort into adjusting the display sets when they were put up. We kept a copy of DVE in the changer just so we could flip it on _all_ the sets when a customer had shopped elsewhere and thought they wanted a specific set because it looked good there and we'd price-match them. Usual outcome of this was the customer agrees that the "sale" set is normally way overpriced and what they actually wanted in a TV was only $20 more normally. Most of us would "split the difference" and knock $10 off it, this one a-hole we had on the floor never would because "ZOMG I GET $5 LESS COMMISSION!"
