Scraggles Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 plasma for some reason. I don't know why. I'm basing my answer strictly on the price difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangbang023 Veteran Posted February 2, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 2, 2005 I generally prefer LCD. It's a more mature technology that is quickly gaining ground. The only advantage plasmas usually have on LCD is brightness and that's simply because too many people associate a bright picture with a good picture.

It's not easy to repair an internal problem on an LCD due to the extreme fragility of the Liquid Crystal and it's need to really be exposed only in a clean room.

Xellos Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 that depends plasma screen are larger in size but tend to get quit dim after just two years LCD's last a little longer but are generally smaller thats the only real differnces between the two either way there lots of money so if you can afford one and have the choice of either LCD or Plasma just Flip a Coin and take it ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another_Paul Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Plasma's suffer from the burn-in effect if a static image stays on the screen too long (similar to that of a projection type TV). LCDs don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
