The Samsung 70" plasma panel seems to be a great choice for many home theater applications. - Samsung has apparently solved the problem of limited resolution noted in other panels; the screen is big enough to permit positioning the set against a wall and viewing the set from a convenient seating area spaced from the screen; the problem of bulk and space taken up by a large RPTV would be obviated; and the set apparently provides great color and brilliance, typical of other plama panels, permitting vewing without worrying too much about the background light level. - The ONLY potential problem I can think of regarding this set is the matter of cost. (Now if I only had some money!)

Regarding the comments re the "blunt" and "direct" approach of discussions on AA, I'm not exactly a newbie to such discussions. (I spent some time defending gun control and discussing the Second Amendment on an NRA/gunners group, for example.) However, my understanding of AA has been that a monitor will step in if the discussions become too pointed.

In any event, I'll continue enjoying the 1080i pictures on my Zenith 65W, but I'll put the Samsung 70 on my "check it out" list, along with the Sony SXRD system.
