I'm happy with it. Guy at the store said plasma uses more energy, but handled motion better. Also, plasma screen is more reflective... so if it's in a bright room with sun coming in windows opposite it, you might want to consider LCD. Just make sure to look at the display (from different angles) at the store. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jay Paxton" <JayPax@xxxxxxxx> To: nikonf4@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, November 29, 2010 11:36:41 AM Subject: [nikonf4] Re: It's starting.... Mark- So how is the plasma? Are you happy with it? I am still looking. -JP -----Original Message----- From: nikonf4-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:nikonf4-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mark Stein Sent: Wednesday, November 24, 2010 7:08 PM To: nikonf4@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [nikonf4] Re: It's starting.... A couple of things... First... Price. I set a price threshold that it had to be less than $400 for a 37-42 inch tv. This was the lowest price set I've seen, and it also has 2 year interest free financing... (less than $20 a month). Also, unless you pay for the higher refresh rates, plasma is better for motion than LCD. I'm setting it up tomorrow... I'll let you know how it is.
