Sticking onto a wall, best advice: have close to the wall + have extension cables

I've been scratching my head about how to stick my LCD to the wall
(Haven't received yet)

I want to be able to access the back and be able plug cables in and out loads of times
i.e. connecting and disconnecting loads of other devies like PC's and game consoles etc

You can get brackets that will come away from the wall nearly 1 meter!!
That sounds brilliant and innovative
Without having seen this in real: I can tell you that this will be an ugly solution!!
Yuk!

In the end... I have gone for a bracket that you can tilt a little and gain access from the back

Stop press: I've just been advised by another LCD/Plasma expert that the best solution is to use extension cables

This sounds brilliant - I was compeltely ignorant of the fact that such existed
Oh well...!
This sounds a much much better solution for the reasons explained above

Personally, if the TV is stuck to the wall, then I think it looks much more elgant and beautiful

I may still go for this solution - I'll see what the one I have purchased comes out like
(I'll simply resell on eBay - may lose £5... but that loss for getting what I need and want)

Depending on the bracket you get, you can get ones that are more tightly close to the wall than others - given hindsight, I think I would prefer this + extension cables

Looking into the prices of extension cables now... I'll write back if I find any useful information to report
