    Fair point but my 20" TV is big enough for me.:)

    And that's why you won't (or very very rarely) find a TV of that size with HD. You're talking about two very different markets. That size it wouldn't be noticeable but for the TVs where the technology is introduced, it is not only noticeable but pretty much required. SD TV on a 42" TV looks awful. It isn't really a marketing ploy at heart, it's a genuine necessity to bring display standards and technologies up to date and in line with current TVs.
