But I think in the 40 - 46 range LCD is the definite better buy.

or the potential to have a big ass paperweight, plasma was a technology for the uber rich who could replace the TV without much concern or worry.

I got a 42" LCD, polaroid, bought it 2 years ago as a scratch and dent for $500, I still haven't found the scratch or the dent yet though. I pretty much have the same setup as tigger where I hook it up to my computer through VGA and use it as a big monitor.

I have a 42" sony bravia and couldnt be happier with it! Picture is incredible. When I was researching Tv's I was told Sony or Samsung. Bestbuy had a sale and i scooped it up. You definitely wont be disappointed with a bravia.

Thanks again guys. I pulled the trigger last night and bought a Samsung 46" LCD 120Hz at a local 'hhgregg' store that is next door to a Best Buy and down the street from a Walmart and BJ's Wholesale Club Warehouse and with the July 4th sale going on the price seemed as good as anywhere even after looking online. The only cheaper price I saw online was for a "Refurbished" and it was only about $100 cheaper.

The model # is LN46B650. It is not an LED...maybe next time.

I also picked up a Samsung Blu-Ray Player to go with it.

It was a b!tch to get home on the R1.

Well, it was probably easier than getting it home in the 'Vette!

Yep now I have even MORE reason to hate you!!!
