Technology, technology

I'm looking at updating a few things around my home, and it occurred to me that I really don't know enough about certain things to make an informed decision ... and sales people are trying to sell a product, so their advice or recommendations may not always be in my best interests.
This leads me to my dilemmas ...
Digital TV - LCD or Plasma?? Do I just plug it in straight out of the box, or do I need extra cables & other devices? Are the additional free-to-air channels worth the expense?
Laptop computer - How much RAM & Hard disk space do I really need? What about the speed of the processor and graphics cards?
Desktop computer - What do I need to be able to connect multiple monitors to my desktop? Is upgrading worthwhile, or is it cheaper & easier to buy a new computer? Where do I go for the cheapest 'build your own' computer?
Feel free to offer suggestions ... I think I need some advice!
