A. The Final Word on HDTV by J.-
If you enjoy throwing $6400 out of the window of your car, then by all means, buy the plasma tv. If youre looking for a decent tv that will last your for a very long time, go with the LCD. While, plasma screen tvs do have a slightly better picture quality than LCDs, their(plasma) lifespans are only about 7-8 years, maximum. Most only last 5-6 years. Some people will try to bullsh** you by saying "Well, they havent been out for that long, how would you know." Well, I know, and so do the people that manufacture them, and so do the people that own them. Another point that you can make is the PS2/other game systems problem, on a plasma tv, if you leave a game system on for an extended period of time, images will become burned into the plasma screen. LCDs, while bulkier, do not have these problems. To me, people that own plasma screen tvs are just like the idiots who own hybrid cars, the only reason they buy them is so that they brag about it to their friends, in the event that the yuppie a-holes even have any. To be simple about it, if want to buy a good Hi-Def tv without spending a small fortune go with the LCD. If you have a couple of extra bucks to spend, I'd recommend DLP, but thats another story.
Now thats out of the way, if youre absolutely hell-bent on getting LCD screen then you have to go with Sony, no questions asked. I think that the vega gives you the biggest bang for your buck, but check it out, at this point in time theres not a huge cost difference between models, general speaking. In any event you want to make sure that you get a Sony. Next, having all of the HD monitors in the world won't do you a damn bit of good unless you have HDTV service. Below are your options:
Cable TV: Absolutely sucks. High cost, crappy picture quality and rather small amount of HD programming even available. Upside: Its HDTV for dummies, your ignorance is your bliss.
DirecTV: Excellent picture and quality at a decent price, however even DirecTV doesnt have a whole of programming in the way of HDTV. Also, I'm not a big fan of their HD technology, but thats just me talking, I'm kind of, well actually, very picky when it comes to TV.
Dish Network: At this point in time, Dish is probably the primo way to go for HDTV. They have excellent receivers/equipment at a fairly modest cost but more importantly they have more HD programming available than any one else on the Planet Earth. I shouldnt be saying this, given the fact that my cousin owns a DirecTV franchise, but what the hell do you care?
These are all options to mull over, but don't be an idiot when it comes to spending money on your TV setup. I promise, if you follow my advise you'll be more than happy.

Should i buy an lcd hdtv or lcd computer monitor?
Q. I want a small screen for my room so i can game on it (ps3 and laptop games). I dont want to spend over 200 and i want at least 19". What are the pros and cons of a lcd tv vs lcd monitor (i can get a larger moniter for cheaper)?
A. The main difference between the two is connection types. The LCD TV will have more TV related connection formats (Component, Composite, S-Video, Stereo RCA, etc.) and built in speakers. The LCD Monitor will have more Computer related connection formats (VGA, DVI, etc.). But if both have HDMI, then you're likely able to use either equally.
But the speakers could become an issue. The PS3 is going to send out audio via HDMI. And as is my understanding, its not going to give you audio via anything else at that point. So if you go HDMI into a Computer Monitor with no speakers, your PS3 has no sound. So you would need a Computer Monitor which has an audio output port that you can hook up speakers to. Many have them, but its just something you need to make sure of.
In smaller sets, a Computer Monitor is more likely to actually have a higher resolution. A smaller 720p TV is likely 1024x768 or something like that. But you can get smaller computer monitors that are more in 1440 or such type resolutions. So for the computing related things, that might be an advantage to have.
If you can find a Monitor with audio out for speakers, I think that might be the best bet. I would look at Dell or Samsung myself, but I guess everyone has their own preferences with monitors.
