Re: Just got to see 5 different models of flat screen plasma displays.

Wouldn't expect to see as good results on a 72" projection set as a 42" plasma, but as good as plasma's are (and I too have seen them all) best picture available at the moment is still a CRT.

Check out the posts further down this page. CRT's still have better contrast, colour, denser blacks and brightness, and don't suffer as badly from the "afterglow" that plasma's do. Quite possible what you saw was the "loaded dem", no dealer trying to sell a $16,000 plasma is going to let you give it a fair comparison against a good CRT, if he did you wouldn't buy the plasma, and he makes more money selling you that. Maybe the technology as it improves will overtake CRT sets, but its a fair way to go yet.
