Question How many tv's do you have?

Just curious. We have two. A 32" in the livingroom and a 19" in the bedroom.

Smile Just one working one here...

We have a 19" in the living room (though our entertainment center can hold up to a 33"--it'll be a while before we can afford to buy one that big). We also have one in the bedroom, but the picture tube is all but gone (at least I think this is the problem), and the TV alternates from having a good picture to having an all blue picture.

Adding to Sara's post.
Our computer can also act as a TV. We have a TV In and Output on it.

Two years ago we didn't have any tv's for well over a year. I didn't miss it at all.

Three. One in the living room, one in my son's room, and one in the guest room.

We will never have one in our room. I don't want DH to forget where his focus needs to be. LOL

We only had one for years-since our move we set up one that I had in storage in the bedroom also, with our wonderful new bed I find I am really enjoying having it in there.

Shamefully we have 5 each of us have a 13 inch in the bedroom, a 13 inch in the kitchen and a 32 inch in the livingroom. Needless to say we all cant always agree what each of us would like to watch.

We have three TV's. One in the livingroom, one in our bedroom and one in our van. I really don't care much for TV but, I love to watch movies. My DH likes the TV running any time he is in the house.

We have on 50-something inch in the LR and a 13 inch in my craft room.

The one in my craft room has not been turned on in over a year, because I am not much of a tv person, but the one in the LR is on all the time the DH is home. He loves to watch his DVD's!

If it were up to me, we probably wouldn't have any!
