Just had my old dumb LG TV die after 9 years of working just dandy. I lack the desire to root around for a dead capacitor so I am currently in the market for an approximate replacement to act as the display for my Linux media center in my living room. I figure this is the right crowd for finding a non-invasive TV so my Linux machine can be the brains. I trust modern Tvs less and less.

Desired features

55"
Non terrible audio
As dumb of hardware/software as reasonably achievable

    Buy a nice TV

    Give it a static IP

    Firewall it off from the internet

    Voila!

    Edit: Make sure it cant call UPNP on your router or any such tomfoolery
