I have read that Dell had computer issues, but not sure of the tv's.
I have heard that Best Buy is ok.
Who was second best ?
I am not the right person to ask.
I am just doing research before I decide Christmas day.
For me other than wanting a quality 50 incher TV the other important points are.
In home set up service and repair in the contract.
Warrenty.
Sound without having to set up the home theater system, again.
Possible extended warrenty.
Cost, ease and part availablity effectiveness is something does need fixin.
Gadget tech fun is not one of my loves in life it is right up there with assembly out of box stuff.
I tend to pay attention to the experts and try and learn to the best of my ability.
Plasma's I read give 60,000,00 viewing hours and as I posted earlier on our home bound dayz (one of us in the team here is a quad) when resting up to get back into action in the world (school, social ect.) We have the tv on about 20 hrs a day for entertainment and news.
