I am glad you are happy with your 42â€ Sony projection LCD TV.

I would like to make a few points.

Comparing a current model premium LCD TV (your Sony) with early generation cheap plasma (gateway) is pointless.

Also, comparing any low-end TV, of any design, to that of a high-end TV, of any design, is pointless. It is irrefutable that if you place a high-end 42â€ plasma beside an entry-level 42â€ RP-LCD TV the plasma will win hands down. The converse is also true.

It is also imperative for any rational comparison of technologies to compare TVâ€™s of the SAME size & the SAME generation. Comparing a 42â€ TV against a 52â€ TV for the purpose of claiming one technology is better than the other is fundamentally flawed.

It is very true that early model plasma TVâ€™s did run quite warm and did suffer burn-in. Cheaper entry model plasma TVâ€™s still do, though not as much as previously.

I have a 42â€ & 50â€ current generation plasma TVâ€™s. They run very much cooler than earlier models and I donâ€™t believe suffer from burn-in. The plasma I had previous to these two was top-of-the- line when I purchased it about 3 years ago. It did not suffer burn-in but did run much warmer than either of my current two.

I have no doubt that your current model Sony RP â€“ LCD TV is/was far superior to your previous TVâ€™s, as it should be.

The point of my post is that if you compare your premium RP - LCD Sony TV with a premium plasma TV you may very well have a different opinion. I do agree with you though that the Sony RP-LCD TV is good value.
