I'm still on a 32" Sony Wega Trinitron tv. The picture is excellent but is standard def. My 360, PS2, and Wii all look great on it and I don't have a reason yet (other than desire) to upgrade. At some point I'll get a 42" LCD but that's probably a year away. To answer the original question, it did have an effect on my console purchase. The 360 was cheaper overall and had a great game library, but if I did have a high-def TV I might very well have waited until the PS3 came down in price to get the Blu-ray drive. Since I can't take advantage of it, it's not a justifiable purchase or I would have already bought the PS3 on the sony credit card $350 deal running at the moment.
I hate trolls.
