The Bottom Line	The ViewSonic N3250w outperforms most other budget 32-inch panels, putting pressure on its no-name competitors.	While certainly not suited to discerning low-light viewing, the inexpensive Vizio L32HDTV is a good bargain for people seeking a solid everyday television.	A step above most LCDs in terms of performance, features and styling, the Sharp LC-32D4U makes a good case for spending a bit more.	While we'd like to see its price drop a bit, the Dell W3201C's impressive feature set and solid image quality definitely set it apart from the budget pack.	If you don't demand the best image quality or need an HDTV tuner, the Samsung LN-R3228W's style might win you over.
