If you can convince them to buy one, that is! Robert Scoble, one the best known technology evangelists at Microsoft is debating an HDTV purchase. You folks are smart; whaddya say we help him out here at HD Beat? First, you need to win his wife over. Maryam wants to buy a wood stove, while Robert wants to buy an HDTV. How would you justify the HDTV purchase if you lived in Washington state and a cold winter was approaching?
Second, (and this assumes you convince them to go for the high-def set), which HDTV would you purchase right now? I don't know what the budget is, but let's keep it semi-reasonable, say no more than $7,500. That may be too high, but then again, I don't know what a wood stove costs these days! Hmm....maybe we need a new niche blog here: WoodStove Insider.com? Ok, now go win the Scobles over and spend their money by posting comments on what they should buy and why!

Dude, no wonder M$ is so screwed up!
First of all, if you work at M$ you should be a gadgethead and you should have had an HDTV in, like 1998. Especially because if you work at M$ you are probably filthy stinking rich.
Second of all, divorce the beeotch! She wants a wood burning stove? A WOOD BURNING STOVE? What is this, 1905?
