...and I weren't selling this house in 6 months, I'd be going for a FP. Most of the people I know who really get cranky about plasmas are FP owners. I can understand why. FP on a 84" to 100" screen is wonderful done well. Great blacks too...assuming this is a CRT and not a DLP, although the FP DLPS are getting very good. I envy you. Glad your enjoying your system.

However, for the rest of us, *subjectively* speaking, I just happen to think the better plasmas can offer a pleasing picture. It's not perfect. But I don't think it's junk. And it's way better than the big LCDs - if you think plasmas have grey blacks, the current Panny and SOny LCD RPs are far, far worse in this respect. Greyscale is poor. No deep shadow detail at all. I can live without the deepest blacks - I can't live without some detail in the shadows.

BTW, we're regulars over at our friend's house for watching his 65" Pioneer Elite RP. Nice display. This beast won't fit in my room.
