So how many people got up Christmas morning to find brand new HDTV’s waiting for them? If your like many out there, you rose to find the jolly ole fat man left you with a nice surprise and ushered your living room into the digital era, leaving you an LCD, Plasma, DLP or some other form of digital television. If your like many of those people, you found out Santa has a jolly ole sense of humor. After rushing the kids through opening packages, racing to make the rounds to various family, scarfing down dried up turkey and fixings, you head off to the living room to embark on this adventure so many of your coworkers brag about experiencing. Only to find hours later, your old television set looked better.

In previous years, whenever we got a new television it was a simple thing to plug them in and turn them on. At most you had to adjust the antenna or maybe wait for the cable company to come by but there was very little effort on your part. That’s no longer true. No longer can you simply plug the set in an expect it to work, now you have to have HD service to go along with that HD set.
