Thanks, but we're looking for an LCD.

In that case, all I can say is "good luck" -- I'm sure LCD panels only started coming out in widescreen (they came after plasma sets, which were all widescreen as well).

Unless you are trying to buy a computer monitor or a very small TV... I'd highly doubt that you'd find anthing larger than 30" being in 4:3 aspect on an LCD.

if you want an lcd, you're going to have to get yourself a 16x9.

There was a small window... and stupidly, I bought a (i think 24") 4x3 lcd for my parents for like 600+ (about 5 years ago?). I can't imagine what a 32" 4x3 lcd would've cost during that window.

anyways, get a 32", or even a 37" lcd (i've seen 37" go for around 550 when there's a good deal). use that screen, with the borders if he really doesn't want it stretched (i watch mine stretched), and he can enjoy that extra space whenever he watches a dvd.
