Don't ever buy a plasma screen, the quoted life is some BS that would supposedly last 7 years but in reality their only getting 3 years out of these things.

There have been some nice advancments in LCD that have seen the sizes increase and the benefit is that the bulbs can actually be changed. Not so for plasma, once it's dead it's dead.

I was looking at TVs the other day. It was depressing. The stuff above a couple of thousand looks amazing. In fact, it makes the lesser TVs that are reasonably priced look downright lousy.

My current television is dying, I just hope it lasts long enough for the prices on the next generation stuff to drop to a reasonable level.

Moore's Law says that everything gets cheaper and better. By the time it wears out, the new model will be cheaper and better than when you originally bought it. Same with flat screen TVs.

I got a DLP projector and couldn't be happier. Takes up *NO* space, weighs 3 lbs.
