In the home-theater world, the ideal viewing distance is around 1.2 or 1.3 times the picture width for a really enjoyable experience with a nice 1080P HD display. Standard definition, I would sit about three times the picture width away, maybe a bit more, for the best compromise between picture size and visible scan lines/phosphor patterns.
