A lot of kids going to college buy TV's for their dorm or house. frosher wonders if this purchase is really necessary.
At college you will probably have a high speed internet connection that will let you download and watch most videos very quickly. Considering that many television networks are (or are in the process of) putting their shows online, you can probably watch them just as easily as you would on the TV set. I've personally being doing this for the past few months and it's quite easy and also serves the purpose of a TiVo since you can watch the show whenever you want.
You might argue that this takes a little bit more time than just switching on the channel - but you should consider that you probably flick channels before finding the one you want and probably have to wait a few minutes before the show you want to see actually starts. After a few days, I found I usually actually saved time by watching the shows online.
But time is hardly the only thing you stand to lose. This article shows how you may lose as much as $1 million by investing in a television. And no, that's not a wild exaggeration. Take a look for yourself:
