In Reply to: Wow - 60" Samsung Plasma for $799!! posted by rlw on October 17, 2014 at 10:52:42:
I don't see what all the hoopla is over plasma technology, which Panasonic has deemed a dead-end and discontinued the line. My 24 inch monitor seems to be doing alright, but, of course, it was a $500.00 monitor in it's time.
Still, seems like a good deal. I think the plasma's are mostly unpopular because of their thickness and, of course, ultimately because of their power consumption.
