Plasmas are great but pricy. Cost aside, the biggest negative is that they dim over time. I say who cares, unless you plan to use it as your primary set for 10 years. Chances are it will meet the same fate as your CRT before it dims to an intorerable level. (Personally, for the money I had to spend, I could not afford a big enough plasma >=50in.)One big neg with DLPs, is off axis viewing. Go to BestBuy and look at the wall of TVs and walk to an off axis viewing point. Some sets will dim and look like crap. I chose a DLP that looked great even if I was 45-60 degrees off axis.(which would be the corner forward from that point) TV spec sheets claim all sorts of things but you really have to see for your self.
