Hi Brian,

That's all very good advice, thank you. What you've laid down is pretty much my stance at this point.

Do all plasmas run that hot? If so, I would definitely be better off with an LED because I've got 4 hot tube amps in close proximity, so it would probably equal a fireplace with the TV.

I am definitely going to buy locally.

The heat issue from plasmas is way overblown. My 50" Panasonic plasma does not generate that much heat (probably like a 20W bulb, at most, distributed over the entire screen). Dont worry about heat. Now to the picture quality. Plasmas win by a good margin. Newer LED/LCD technologies are way better than they used to be, but still have not caught up with plasma. Dont judge by what you see in the stores. They will crank up the brightness and color on the higher profit sets which help grab the uninformed eye. You can only judge a properly calibrated set of any technology.

  Just talk to the hand.
  
  We'll have to agree to disagree about global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along
