Overdue Reviews: 'Strange Days'

Best HDTVs Under $1000 5

Westinghouse W2613
26-inch LCD 720p
$449.99 from Best Buy

WHAT'S A DEAL: Sexy styling, day and night settings depending on room light, energy efficient. Can be used as a computer monitor.

WHAT'S THE CATCH: Only one HDMI input; only 720p resolution; regular TV only looks so-so.

BOTTOM LINE: This 26-incher does just enough that's right to make it a decent buy for $449. It's ideal as a multi-purpose computer monitor for the study, or an extra TV in the kitchen or bedroom.

Leila Brillson: Definitely not rooting for that hoity toity Pekingese, that's for damn sure. #Westminster

Leila Brillson: I'm, like, okay with being a little crazy.

Leila Brillson: The time, energy, words, weight lost, nails bitten, scabs picked and nights I've struggled thru for this are easy to judge from afar, right?

Terrence O'Brien: Things I won't miss about being a freelancer: incorrectly estimating my taxes and owing a ton of cash at the end of the year.
