    Okay for Christmas my mam is going to go halves with me on a HDTV for my room, but I have a few questions. My budget isnt much (circa 900) and I've been looking at this TV from Komplett.

    My questions; Is this a decent TV? I dont have digital can I plug my normal cable into the TV to still get normal channels or am I screwed?

    That's all folks, thanks for you time.

    Is this a decent TV?

    Yes it is.
    I dont have digital can I plug my normal cable into the TV to still get normal channels or am I screwed?

    Yes it comes with a terrestrial tuner.

    Personally I would be wary of no-name displays while if you know exactly what your after, you can occasionally find a gem but more often than not they will have used some cheap low quality Chinese panel to power the display which is where the savings come from. Stick to the good brand names like Samsung, LG, Toshiba etc.. are these are the guys who build the quality LCD panels in the first place & use them in their own TV's.
