3. I'm winning mega millions and that's my house, btw
But tbh if I won that house I'd probably try to sell it asap. I'd much rather have a small beach house in CA then go live in FL :scared:

4. These things are a HOOT - the size of a mattress, yet inflexible.
More than one uber-rich household has gone through a door or window removal to get the beast inside!

9. I wonder what the power consumption is.
Worse, anything less than 1080p resolution will truly look crappy.

40" sets with standard analogue transmissions are bad enough (properly made DVDs look great too...) but I wouldn't go higher than 42, period... especially if energy usage is a concern.
