Time to get a new TV...it's been a few years. Probably a 42 inch. LCD? LED? Plasma? They range anywhere from $300 to $1000. I have no idea what to get or where to get it. Anybody out there with some wisdom to share? What to get? What not to get? Thanks in advance...

LCD's tend to be very, very cheap right now because the panel manufacturers made way too many panels.
It really depends on what you're gonna watch, how you use it, and how picky you are. Just watching over the air stuff? HD cable, or standard SD? Do you have XBox/Playstation/Wii? Still use VHS? DVD? Do you have a BluRay player? Want to stream Netflix or Hulu? Do you have wired Ethernet near the TV, or WiFi N or G available?

daworm: Comcast (xfinity) HD. DVD... may eventually go the WiFi route. I'm not a gamer.

I picked up a refurbished LG 42 inch LED lit smart TV from Same 4 less and have been very pleased with it. For $500 it fit right in my budget and streams Netflix (as well as a few other services) very well without the addition of any extra boxes.
