The guy from Samsung is right. Plasma has to be recharged otherwise it will lose it's gas just like an AC system. There are inherited flaws with the system. When you take one out of the box the damned thing smells funny. We used to use one in our trade show till it broke and lost all of the gas. They do not travel well. We now use an LCD screen for our presentations. Recently went to a concert in Houston and stopped by the Hard Rock for a cocktail before the concert and they had a multitude of plasmas with burn-in. I'd take a good ol CRT anyway.
