that ‘mirror’s’ thing (said it had millions of tiny mirrors for whatever reason)...It's called DLP, and it's pretty incredible technology for projection.

The Plasma looked ‘smeary’ in that the colors seemed to be humid (???) damp, not very sharp.

My problem with plasma is that it flickers; most people don't seem to be able to see it though.

Now that you mention it, I saw it too but just out the corner of my eye. If I looked directly at it, it was okay but if I looked off to the side I could see a flicker. I wonder what the difference is between the two. I know the plasma uses gas to make colors and the LCD uses some sort of electrical charge (had all this explained to us). But the mirror thing, I’ve forgotten. But it seems the LCD is the bigger seller.
