Looking to get a small flat panel lcd for the bar we are building in the new place.-
13-15" maybe.
Any brands to steer clear from?? Looking to spend under $300 if possible.
Not looking for anything too fancy. Just something to watch the games on and drink at the bar.

On the small LCD's I have always been a fan of 'Sharp'.

I believe they had a hand in inventing the technology and their TVs seem to look better than other when viewed back-to-back.

Are you looking for something wall mountable?

So what you need to be looking for is displays that are VESA compatable. Meaning the stand is removable and you are able to mount to a wall. (scratch the acer, no tv tuner)

Is 15" inch as large as you want to go?

[hessogood]

13 -15 is pretty tiny no? I think they make those handheld portable TV's that big now.

[McBiggity]

haha, yeah- well the room is pretty small.
I may go bigger if I can get a good deal on something
