What a great contest! Let's get it rolling....SO I share a 500sq foot apartment with my boyfriend who is a photographer and an avid music collector. What part of our apartment is not taken up by his photo equipment is scattered with his massive old vinyl collection. We are both lovers of the arts and like to keep as hip to new music, so yes, we do have quite the nice stereo, and a vintage turntable. Among our other electronic devices are two lap top computers- which it shames me to admit I have been using the watch TV on for almost a year now. Not all people know that you can watch TV shows online now, but you can on ABC.com and NBC.com!!

NO, we do not own a TV, in fact I have never owned a TV, and neither has my boyfriend- it is quite shocking we have all of this other technical gear but still no TV.

However, there is a space just above our turntable where a little TV would go quite nicely. I was not allowed to watch TV when I was a child, my mom had one of those nifty lockboxes with a secret code, and every 4 years when the Olympics were on she would unlock it for a family gathering around the glowing tube!

Although raised on no TV, I have found that I would love to have one when my boyfriend is away to keep me company- as a photographer he travels almost every week and often I am lonely, dreaming of curling up on the couch and watching movies, Trading spaces, or any other home improvement show while he is gone, shows I cannot get on my little laptop.

I would love to have this TV, it is the perfect addition to my home! Please help me end this desperate act of TV watching on my laptop and grant me an actual TV for my lonely nights!
