and something else you may want to consider

Avoiding burn-in (plasma) and brown-in (LCD). A plasma display, even today's models, will get burn-in if the display is only used for 4x3 content. An LCD display, despite what most uninformed people believe, will get brown-in if the display is only used to display 4x3 content.

There are (close to) 4x3 LCD displays, but they are, relatively speaking, small and are best suited for use as a computer monitor. There was a company (can't remember the manufacturer) that made a 42" plasma display that had a 4x3 aspect ratio. That was years ago and I haven't seen it advertised since then.
