	Some people simply want the biggest thing they can get, no matter
how foolish it sounds.

	For example, if you plan on sitting within 8 feet of the TV, then
the largest you would want to pick up is going to be between 32 and 40
inches. Any larger and you are going to be missing part of the scene and or
need to race your eyes around the screen to see everything that is
happening.

	Nobody really does the research on this though, they just see a huge
TV that looks great from 30' away in the store and they have that giant
"empty" space on their credit card that they just HAVE to fill and so they
buy it. It doesn't matter that their living room is a 8 foot by 10 foot
space of which the viewing distance will be no greater than 7 feet. They
have their giant TV and that's all that matters.
