[QUOTE="TJones CPII, post: 4063052, member: 586146"] Maybe this might help..... This is taken from Consumer reports March 2008 " Top TVs". LCD TVs- Common size is 17 to 52 inches. Pros: wider range of sizes and greater choice of 1080p sets then plasmas. Lighter weight. Brighter images. Most have no reflections from screen. No risk of burn-in. Use less power. Slim. Cons: Most have limited viewing angle. Don't match plasmas for deepest blacks and smooth motion. Plasma TVs- Common size is 42 to 60 inches. Pros: Virtually unlimited viewing angle. Deeper Blacks and better contrast then on LCDs. No motion blur. More screen for the money. Slim. Cons: Shiny Screens show reflections in bright rooms. Images may leave a temporary or permanent impression. Use more power. Fewer 1080p plasma sets then 1080p LCDs. Rear-Projection TVs- Common size is 50 to 70 inches Pros: Most screen for the money. Wide selection of 1080p sets. Cons: Bigger that flat panels, mostly 12 to 20 inches deep. Narrow viewing angle than on plasmas. Must periodically replace bulb, which cost $200 to $300.
