What can I say? It's a fine TV, just like pretty much every other TV. More inputs than I'll ever use, although its slanted towards HDMI and could do with more component/composite. But still, none are full. PC Input has a headphone jack style audio in, which makes for easy connection of audio with PC. Got it at Costco for $700. Really, just find an LCD HDTV that's a decent price and your fine. No reason not to get this if the price is right.
