Always someone to be first  --  even if all of us waited for a year after 
the first product comes out  --  someone is going to be first!
First TV I ever Purchased was 1988.       Parents gave me old B&W about 1972 
 --  first TV ever in my possession and I was approaching 30!
Second TV used and given to me about 1980.

NEVER  had cable  --  NEVER.       At Little Bother's house for the week and 
he has satellite and so far I have watched only what comes over broadcast in 
SF  --  PBS mostly  --  ain't got no interest in this thang to be honest!
