Plasmas are great initially, but you probably need to plan on replacing it every 2-3 years. LCDs should last longer.

I've heard the same thing about Plasma TV's except it was 5 years or less for replacement of a Plasma TV.

Very true. I worked on a project for Fujitsu General America. The electronic technicians told me NOT to buy a plasma video. My neighbor (multi-millionaire - new house) just bought a Mitsubishi 62" DLP tv for around U$D 6k, and, due to the screen size, you have to be back at least 20 feet from the screen; otherwise the parallax and convergence issues make you dizzy.

Bottom line, do not over size the screen.

DLP is the best all around technology though.
