Figure how far you'll be sitting from the TV. Halve that distance and that's the size screen to get. Generally speaking, the brands that get the best reviews are Pioneer and Hitachi(for plasma), Panasonic, Sony, and Samsung (LCD).

Actually that rule does not apply any more with the high definition sets. With 1920 by 1080 set, you can sit within a couple of feet and still have a clear picture, at least in the 50 to 60 inch sizes. With the 768 resolution you have to move back a bit, but it is still a lot closer than most 480 sets. These days the limit is your wall size and your pocketbook.

Plasma if you live below 5000ft and burn in will not be a problem for you. LCD for anything else. They do make Plasma's that work at high altitude but very very expensive.
