She HATES everything electronic and says my surround sound system is "invasive" because it sounds like whatever you're watching is in the room with you.
Still, no matter how nice the sound system is, it ain't going to cost as much as that silly ring. Hell, I'd feel better if bought her a watch that cost as much as the ring. That would be a grotesque waste of dough, but at least the product would have a function of some sort.
S(Now I will admit that giving her the ring was so much fun that I don't really regret paying for it at all, but I'm speaking from a strictly logical perspective here)D

You obviously married the wrong woman. I'm with PJ, I'm a total remote hog and not only do I HAVE to have a big screen to watch the Mariners on, it HAS to be of extremely high quality. I hate dot crawl, color bleeding, color impurities etc. on my televisions. No cheap crap for me. And the newer televisions are quite attractive. The new Sony plasmas have a lucite frame and silver base that look good with all but the most traditional of furnitures. Of course if you have traditional furniture, then just stick with the RCA console.
Edited to add that the new Pioneer Elite's have a very attractive black lacquer frame. Panasonic has a nice silver finish for that in-between look.
