Default anyone have a flat panel tv on there back porch?

ok i was wanting to put a 32-40" flat panel up in my back porch and was wondering if anyone has one in theirs. didn't know if the humidity or anything would mess it up. it will be put where no water will be able to get to it. just seeing if anyone has had any experience!

I've had a 20" flat panel on my PC in the shop for over a year without an issue.

Please post up your address if you have a TV on your porch. I would also be interested to know if you have a dog.

My parents have had TVs on the poorch for years, and havent had any problems aside from electronics getting old and starting to mess up, maybe due to being outside for years, or maybe due to being cheap and over 10 years old. Also I worked at a marina for about 3 years and there were plenty of people with flat panels at the lake. Mostly just make sure that it stays out of the rain and stuff as much as possible.

I have one (40 inch flat panel with cover) on my back covered patio, dont have a dog but I do have a colt 45 thats works even better. I have a extended warranty on the tv so if it goes out, I will just get a new one. I have not had any trouble at all in 2 yrs so far..
