So my giant monstrosity of a TV came in last night. A Samsung 46” DLP HDTV. I spent pretty much all of today hooking it up, finishing right around 4PM. There was lots to do before I could just plug that bad boy in.

First of all, I had to take everything in the entertainment center apart, dust it and set it aside. Since the TV wouldn’t actually fit in our “entertainment center” (if you haven’t seen that thing you might be a little confused as to the quotation marks) I had to take everything off of it and move the entertainment center over to make room for the new table I bought for the TV. Then I had to plug it all back in again, running a good two miles of wire in the process. Jeesh.

It’s worth it though. My setup looks sweet. Both the new TV and the old one are hooked up now, so you can actually watch two TV stations at the same time if you want to, or play two different video game systems at the same time. Definitely very cool.
