TV Nation


Magnavox and Sylvania dominate the list of the top 10 selling televisions, while traditional powerhouse Sony came in with only two of the top models. Even though high-definition liquid-crystal displays and plasmas are all the rage, only one model -- the 15" Magnavox LCD TV -- cracked the top 10 best-selling televisions in August. All of the models, including the LCD model, retail for under $500.
