Q. I am looking at buying between a 40 to 50 inch wide screen flat panel television and would like to know the following differences between plasma and LCD:
-cost
-performance (longevity, clarity, gaming hook ups)
-track records (proven to last)
-weight (will it be able to hang on the wall with out major damage)
-best brands for plasma and LCD
-stores with the best deals
-do you recommend getting the extended warranty
-do you recommend getting the set up (I think it is a rip but want to know how easy each of them are to set up and hang on the wall)
-best for gaming.
I will be using this TV for gaming and watching sports and am looking for something that will show the details. I also would like something that would last longer since I will be spending a lot of money on it. Thanks in advance for all the help.

A. LCD TVs use an LCD panel to create the picture. It's the same LCD screen technology you find on laptop computers and digital cameras. Plasma TVs use gas suspended within glass panels and stimulated by an electrical field to create the picture.
Each technology has its advantages. Plasmas tend to have a better picture than LCD TVs, while LCD TVs promise better long-term reliability and freedom from screen burn-in worries.
LCD is available in small sizes such as 15 inches and go up from there, while plasma sets start over 30 inches in size. LCD tends to be more expensive than plasma TVs of the same size.
If I was buying one for myself, I would lean plasma because of the better picture quality -- the new Panasonics are especially good. In LCD sets Sony, Sharp and Toshiba are all very good, as is Samsung.
Bargain shoppers should check out the LCD sets from Westinghouse -- they have excellent pictures and are a great value at the asking price.
An HDTV standard has been in place in the United States for years. The new digital television specifications have many different available resolutions, not all of them HDTV.
To be considered HDTV broadcasts must be either 720p (720 progressively scanned lines) or 1080i (1080 interlaced lines).

What can I play on my HDTV that is in 1080p, and is the higher resolution even worth it?
Q. 1080p displays are the newest types of LCD displays on the market. Although broadcasters do not send a 1080p signal yet, the newest Blu-ray and HD DVD players do. If you want the highest possible picture detail and a display that will accommodate higher resolutions in the future, then the cost may be worth it.
A. TV stations will not send any 1080P signals out, the bandwidth requirements exceed the 6 Mhz bandwidth that the FCC allows per channel.
They can transmit 1080i, but cannot transmit 1080P signals due to this limitation.
But DVD players can send a 1080P signal...and if the demand exists in the Future....you may see 2160P.
Is there a REAL difference between 1080P and 1080i ?
You would have to Sit RIGHT ON TOP OF THE TV SET to actually see the difference.
Round objects are smoother/rounder on 1080P, of course it is limited by the FACT that all display panels use square pixels to create a round object...
So there are limitations to the roundness of objects anyways....
I would suggest SITTING BACK and enjoying the whole picture and letting our eyes process the "squared circles" into smooth round circles.
Persistance of vision is an amazing part of our human design.
Is it worth the money to get a 1080P TV set?
YES !
You have to understand that 1080P TV sets actually have a 1920 x 1080 display panel, rather than a 1280 x 768 display in them.
A 1080P TV set is actually HIGHER DEFINITION than ones that can only process 720P and 1080i.
Native resolution is a very important value, and that wonderful [[1080P]] sticker on most TV sets tell you that you have purchased the HIGHEST Native Resolution DISPLAY that you can get !!
