Computer monitor backlights aren’t as bright as TVs, I find.

Also, no semi-decent built-in speakers.

You don't need speakers: the built-in speakers in TVs aren't decent either, so you have to add external speakers.

The backlight issue is valid though. Also, 32" or 36" is tiny. It's fine (really too big IMO) if you're sitting in front of it at a desk, but for watching from a sofa from a distance, it's too small these days. This isn't the 20th century with NTSC/PAL resolution any more.
