Dear friends,
For many years, I've not had a television. I've made this restriction because of conservative Christian convictions. However, I do want to watch helpful, conservative videos--VHS and DVD. I refer to subjects such as apologetics, creation vs. evolution, evidences, and Bible teaching.
I've had an old monitor that was a high school discard in the mid 1990s, but this needs to be replaced. Does anyone know of a company or companies that produce non-television television sets? Or maybe I should be asking about monitors or screens or whatever--something that I can connect to a DVD player that will enable me to see these videos. Someone suggested just getting a regular TV, and not using it for TV, but only for viewing DVDs. No, I would rather avoid TV entirely.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Any company names or addresses or telephone numbers?
Thank you so much and God bless you,
Richard _________________ Richard

TV is switching to digital in a few months (hopefully), so just buy an older set that supports VHS and doesn't have a digital adapter. I personally just watch DVD's on my computer. _________________ The Farming Game - Software Edition for PC, Mac, Linux
