Hey Steve,

It sure is difficult to come to firm conclusions about picture quality in these discussions. Not just because it's so subjective, but because it's hard to see many displays of any type set up with proper care. I wouldn't want to make my judgements on picture quality based only on what I'd seen in stores. Luckily, I have friends in the AV business who have careful set-ups, and in my film post production facilitites I have access to displays of all types, professionally calibrated. That's why I feel a little more confidence that I am comparing the different display technologies on a somewhat even playing field.

I must say that, as good as I thought the Panasonic plasma looked in the store set-ups, once I'd intalled one with care in my home (good power/cables/DVD player etc.) the picture available was significantly better than I'd ever seen. I still rarely encounter a plasma in a store that approaches the picture quality I'm getting at home. I'm sure this is true of all types of displays.
