Oh, snap. Disoriental, you got schooled by those guys. Geez. I was speaking out of ignorance, compared to them. Since we have to limit the subject to 42" plasmas, you can't start talking about 50" stuff, especially if you got people with multiple 42" plasmas, which I'm not, poor boy that I am. I don't think anyone is saying that EDTV is so much better than HDTV, that's just silly. But let's not forget the word, TV in those plasmas, it's not EDPCMonitor or HDPCMonitor....it's primary purpose to the "general audience" is TV. Anyone can defend a tangent. Especially, if one is really rationalizing their 50" HDTV plasma TV purchase that almost have the same ROI as two 42" EDTVs. But then again, I'm just a Junior Member. But I appreciate everyone educating me.
