I think a lot of it is personal preference but based on what I saw, and remember seeing even a few years ago, LCD always had a bit of a flat pastel look to it vs plasma. Plasma, to me, seeme to have more depth in the picture.
As for attaining accurate LCD color, it also seems to me that you have to be dead center to the screen because moving off axis even a slight amount shows up as a shift in color. This was especially noticeable to me while watching a TV newscaster - or any talking head. Move slightly to the left or right of center and the skin tone changes. I'm sure LCDs have improved viewing angle these days but still not quite there in my opinion.
Additionally, I see some blurring on LCD when watching sporting events but I've read that some of the newer sets with faster refresh rates address this problem.
Of course Costco isn't the ideal place to compare the technologies but what I saw at Costco is basically what I see at Best Buy or anywhere else when comparing LCD to plasma.
The LCDs have less reflection and if I were to get a flat screen for the living room I would probably go LCD because our living is bright during the day. However, down in the basement home theater room, I am more inclined to go plasma. I can control the lighting and make it pretty dark down there even during daylight hours.
