19" CRT. In the snow. And we had to get up to change the channels. And we liked it that way. ---

27 inch. Listened to Sirius satellite radio’s various radio feeds through most of it. I really enjoyed the BBC feed early in the game. ---

I watched it on a 40"x71" HDTV image (~81.5" diagonal widescreen) via a DLP front projector. The picture rocked. The game was kinda meh. So were the commercials. ---
