said by danclan :42+19=61 looks to me he is still 4" short of what was promised. So a 42" TV and a 23" TV together would have the same screen area as a 65" TV? That's some interesting math (geometry). |

65 diagonal = 57x32 = 1824" square
50 diagonal = 44x25 = 1100" square
42 diagonal = 37x21 = 777" square
26 diagonal = 23x13 = 199" square
19 diagonal = 17x9 = 153" square
So to get the equivalent surface area, assuming a 42" screen, you'd need to add a 50".
Alternatively, you could have 2x42" and 1x26".
The bigger the TV, the more surface area another inch adds. |

Jonesville, MI | Last I knew, they don't count the cabinet size with CRT monitors. Some people get confused because they don't realize the measurement is a diagonal measurement, but I've never seen cabinet size come into play. |

Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back though, it didn't take much. |
