Wall mounting while retaining access to ports?

It's time for me to blow a paycheck or two on a new television. Here are the required parameters:

-55" or more
-wall mountable
-side VGA input

Simple enough, yeah? My eyes are crap, so most of the things that videophiles care about don't really matter to me. I just want a big screen that I can hang on the wall and sometimes hook up to my computer.

The trouble seems to be that big wall-mountable televisions have their VGA inputs on the back, and they don't make the fanciest wall mounts for the bigger screens. Solution?

What would you be wanting with the VGA port????

They make right-angle HDMI cables.

I want to run video from my computer to the television. The computer doesn't have any HDMI outputs.

Well, you either upgrade your computer to one with HDMI output or you buy a TV with VGA input. Simple.

Too bad; refusing to deal with reality does not change your situation David ol' boy.
