If you want to get the TV, get the TV. It's your money and you can do what the hell you want with it. Why try so hard defending yourself.
Yes, 720 HD TVs are being phased out and and google any reliable electronics site and you will find plasma uses a lot more electricity.
The EU are even considering a bill to outlaw plasma TV due to the energy consumption.
That's another reason most manufactuers are playing it cool on plasma. |
LOL
I've made 3 (now 4) posts in this thread.
1. Posted the link and said great deal.
2. Said generic comment about Plasma TVs not really having a ghosting issue anymore. Someone else said they still do on low end models and I didn't reply because I don't really know if this model does or does not. However, I did say that overall LCD is better than plasma.
3. Said its only a $350 TV in the end, so that's a great deal regardless of Plasma vs LCD or 720p.
How is that tyring so hard to defend myself?
As for the rest of your post, thank you for allowing me to spend my money my way. I have had the same 32" Wide Screen CRT 480i TV for the last 5+ years. So, a $350 42" 720p plasma is a BIG jump up for a very small cost. i.e. GREAT DEAL!
Plus, this thread just shows how little many of you actually understand HD and resolution settings.
1. At 42", its quite difficult to tell the difference between a 720p signal and 1080p. You really need 46"+ to begin to see improvements.
2. ITS A F'ING BRAND NEW 42" HD TV FOR ONLY $350 FOR CHRISTS SAKE!
3. Most or your precious HD games or in 720p or less native. lol.
As for the EU, I'm not there, so I don't give an F. I guarantee you this plasma uses a lot less energy than my CRT. Net gain for me eitherway.
