    Well y'all were right IPS screwed me they wouldnt honor the online price they wanted me to pay $411 so I just got the pump tensioner and timing belt I sourced the rest through cherry hill mitsu, who was more then happy to overnight the parts free of charge.

    I still find LED to be too reflective.

    Fantastic picture and color quality, though.
    Ranked No. #1 in initial quality

    Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.

    that only happens if they put a gloss screen on it. matte should be great.

    personally, i'd never own a plasma. too much PITA. i don't have a crt monitor any more either.

    then again, comparing 1080p plasma to 1080p anything else is like a contest for who the smartest retard is. resolutions are still too low.

    PITA how?

    My 2007 Samsung 550 series plasma has 90% the picture quality of an LED. My parents have an 8000 series 46" Samsung and there isnt much difference.

    A back lit led with local dimming is the only tv technology close to a plasma in picture quality. Samsung a couple year ago used this technology till Sony sued them for using their tech. So if you want a led buy a Sony. Thad you are right they could use a bump in resolution for bigger tv's.
