Re: TV
I own a Samsung Smart TV. I'm not sure if I'd buy one again. The "Smart" part of the TV is at best too flaky and unwieldy to rely upon and at worst locks up your tv every week or so 'updating' itself (the advertisements in the smart hub). I disconnected mine from the internet because of this
Today I'd buy a non-smart tv. Or perhaps a Roku tv. those are actually stable.
I'm not sure if I'd upgrade to a 4k box. My eyes can barely see in .25k. OTOH, the color palette of a 4k machine is glorious, even if the resolution is lost on me.

Re: TV
Was looking at a Samsung. We never go out, TV is out only window on the world so I was going to go large.. like 80". I really don't care for the "smart" features. Just want a TV that I can plug shit into and can stand an occasional trip to the freezer.

You're on! I'll have to arrange the vacation time, just let me know when. 80" is what you're looking for, right?
