Plasma TV's = Energy Hog

[Creepusmaximus]

LED DLP's are the most energy efficient tv's out there.

I never liked the look of plasmas either. My samsung LCD with proper settings is excellent.

Laser Tv's are a coming. http://blogs.pcworld.com/staffblog/archives/006226.html

Most energy efficient.

^^^ Here you go. "World's best TV". omg a plasma.

I highly doubt that, especially at $3,000. Most 1080p's are under $2,000 now, not to mention techs like DLP/LCD are far more conservative both maintenance and energy-wise. Plasmas are like the car that needs 500 horsepower and a gallon of fuel to get a 12 second quarter mile vs LCD/DLP which could do it with less than half that.

Plasma's generate some serious heat. They draw more current and are worse in high light conditions. They do have better coloring and black ratio's (typically).
Personally I am an LCD fan, with proper signal and set up they look great.

All the stats in the world are pointless, unless you have a plasma and lcd side by side you will never have to worry about it. They both have potential to look great
