MrGreg -
I looked like Hell before I bought my last tv for the bedroom. I really wanted a 4:3 as I simply prefer 'em. I ended up buying a smaller tv just so I could get the 4:3 ratio. I couldn't find a single one in the 32" range. I found a couple in the 27" range and you know what? They look bigger than the stupid 32" 16:9 ratio tvs. Tis true. Tis true. So best of look with your hunting. I ended up with a cheapo Polaroid brand but she's been nothing but stable and looks great. (now that I said that watch what happens!)

That's because they are.
A 32" 16x9 ratio tv will have a surface area of 437.55 square inches
A 32" 4x3 ratio tv will have a surface area of 491.52 square inches



(although for myself, I chose a 52" 16x9)
