HD-TV

Last night I went to a friends house to watch the football. At first we were going to to go to Friend A's house. Friend A is currently a bit of a LazyView hero or someone we hate and are jealous of. He quit his job and decided to have a few months off working and go on a massive holiday in the US including blowing all his money gambling in Vegas. Sadly he came back with more money than he left with. The utter bastard.

We were going to watch the football at his house but he had a power cut. When I phoned him to see whether the power was back on, he was in the casino. I'm at work and he's galavanting around the casino. Told you he was a bastard.

Anyway, this meant we had to change location so we went to Friend B's house, and Friend B has a HD-TV box with the BBC HD channel. This meant we could watch England's players be extremely shit in extremly high quality. My first thought was "it's like watching Half-Life!" (or any other recent high resolution game with relatively realistic sets...). It's definitely very odd at first having PC level resolutions on a TV, but it is very good. Especially for football. If I could afford either an HD-TV or a Sky HD box and subscription I'd definitely want to get one. It's the future.

Anyone want to give me a few grand?
