stay away from plasma's. the bulbs go out about every few months. and they cost liek 100 bucks to replace.  

go with lcd. they will last a long time.

any TV I get.. the warranty will include bulb changes..that is for certain. I know DLP bulbs are 250 and last 2-3 years..

how about somebody buy my 970's :)

LOL that's a bunch of hogwash. I have a plasma and a lcd tv and have not change any bulbs. Yes over time your white levels and black levels turn to junk but you can't replace the bulb on a plasma, you have to replace the whole unit.

First off do you even own a plasma or lcd tv? A plasma tv's effective lifespan is about 60,000 hours of viewing time. Even if you watched tv for 10 hours a day, 365 days a year you could still hypothetically get 16 years out of your tv. The whole issue of a plasma tv's not lasting that long is really a non-issue. If in 16 years your still using the same tv then by all means do not buy a plasma. Of course depending on how much tv you watch, what type of material you watch etc, screen burn in is definetly more prevalent in plasmas but you can still get a good 8-10 years out of a plasma.

Sorry for the threadcrap Johnny. DLP is a great choice...also look at LCOS if you don't really care for space.

Taken from www.plasmatvbuyingguide.com

"The florescent bulb that powers the lcdtv picture should realistically last about as long as the plasma TV's half-life, 30,000 hours. The bulb may not burn out for a few thousand more hours, but its white balance will probably have changed enough and the bulb itself will probably have dimmed dramatically enough to merit replacement. Whereas one would have to replace an entire plasma TV in such instances, one only has to replace the bulb in the LCD TV. The LCD TV can be returned to "like-new"

performance levels with a simple bulb change out."
