I spent that on a 32" LCD and am very happy with it.  The inbuilt sound is 
better than $50-$100 computer speakers.  I'll probably replace the speakers 
with external ones at some stage since it is a pain having to turn the TV on 
just to listen to music, but I don't really object to the quality and if I 
was looking for a $5k complete system, wouldn't replace them.  Of course, 
they won't touch your system :)

The resolution is standard LCD (1360x768) and while the quality is visibly 
worse than my wife's apple at 1920x1080, it is quite good enough for me.  Far 
more pleasant on the eyes than my 'professional' CRT at 1600x1200.
