Well, I still use my 2007 50" Panasonic plasma, and it does the up-scaling. DVD's look as good as blu-rays to me. We sit about 12-15 ft. away. The Panasonic still looks great, even though its a 15 year old TV.

That's great news. What model? My sister has the Panasonic TH-50pz700, circa 2006. I going to try my best looking DVDs on it next week. Did you get your plasma calibrated or have been using it straight out of the box ever since?

  I don't remember the model number off the top of my head. No, I didn't get it calibrated, but used the calibration numbers from reviewer websites I found. The picture still looks incredibly good, especially considering the age.

    though this one's for calibrating OLEDs.
