My third article for Forbes.com, on the virtues and value of small or mid-sized televisions as opposed to their more overbearing, oversized peers, was published today. I touch on ten models that would fit well in a small apartment or dorm room, or would be good if you just don’t want a gigantic television dominating your home. Personally, I lean toward the high-end. I used to think I’d be comfortable with a 42-inch display, but after doing a lot of Best Buy walkthroughs researching for these articles, I have to admit the 50″+ sets are more and more appealing.

My next article will be on affordable digital cameras, and will almost certainly feature the Canon PowerShot A720IS. I had an opportunity to do a hands-on review, and was very impressed with the performance; very powerful for a point-and-shoot that’s geared toward casual users. Plus, it’s under $200.
