In Reply to: Do plasma screens leak? posted by Wordsmith on January 18, 2002 at 17:03:20:
the current generation of plasmas are expected to begin showing signs of phosphor "burn-out" after ~30,000 hours of use.that's ten years
if you have it on 8 hours a day every day of the year
and if you think about it
you really don't have a life--that is to say, your plasma IS leaking no matter how you look at it
besides
in ten years, i'm positive i'll be ready for Microsoft's A/V digital genetic implant (whether i want it or not)
the horror...
"There is no reality except the one contained within us. That is why so many people live such an unreal life. They take images outside them for reality and never allow the world within to assert itself."
