RE: stop thinking

"The reason is because plasma technology uses phosphors to create the image. Guess what other technology uses phosphors? CRT. This allows both to get truer colors than other display technologies. LCD, no matter how well it's done, is more artificial looking."
A subjective opinion put forth as objective fact.
By the way, some LCD Tvs are noted for accurate color and some plamas are noted for inaccurate color. Much depends on implementation rather than the basic technology.
Personally I'm more bothered by the fine layer of noise I see in Panasonic plasmas than I am by any motion problems that may be present in the better Samsung LCDs. None of these things are perfect, as with hi-fi gear you often pick between flaws and arrive at the compromise that works best for you.
