and here (in 2015) we have a retailer competition to determine the “King of TV” and guess what? All the contenders are 4K/UHD tvs …..no 1080p rez jobs. So the haters can live with it and are free to bookmark these words.

P.S.
This morning I received a couple PMs inquiring as to how will they (Value Electronics) calibrate the gamma (2.4? BT.1886?) for the TVs in the shootout. You would have to ask Robert for the particulars, but I can remind folks factually how the math works out and its potential implications.
