this picture is of our 60" (picture is right after we put in the wood floor hence no couch or trim)

That does look good.

This. A TV should be eye level while seated.

This. My buddy put his 58" plasma at eye level while standing. Tad to high when sitting to watch it. I think it diminishes the picture quality a little

it doesn't matter how good of a deal you got on geek squad, it's not worth it. Hopefully you at least saved $75 and bought the mount from monoprice.com. The install is SUPER easy... you just need a level, tape, drill... and a screwdriver. I installed mine in about an hr, and I was taking my sweet ass time to make sure it was level.

[Rick the Home Inspector]

As a home inspector I see many televisions mounted over fireplaces. The biggest problem is that people will run cable and electrical wiring down the fireplace chase which is against electrical code. If your home ever had a fire and the fire investigator found this condition, your home insurance provider would have a way out of paying out a claim.

Also, if you have a problem with your television you should never tell them you had it mounted over a fireplace. Most warranties do not cover placement over a fireplace cause they are prone to heat damages from the firebox. (Plasma's are the worst to mount over a fireplace for this reason)

I went to a party last night at an apt club house that had a big tv over an outside fireplace. It looked pretty cool until you realized that it was warped from the heat of the fire.

LOL thats crazy
