We were told by Magnolia HiFi, Tim, that the Fujitsu is the best of the best of the best for plasma. Second place belongs to Pioneer Elite and Panasonic is third for its cost value.

The research we're doing goes like this.

Plasmas burn in.
No, they don't because certain companies have addressed this issue.

Who?

Well, Sony won't be in the plasma market for much longer, as they are coming out with a new technology. Panasonic has this; but, here...Fujitsu has a technology that prevents burn in, unless you leave your television on for too long. What's too long? More than fifteen minutes at a time.

Ok. Sounds like plasma is cooler these days.

But, you should look into your cable company because that can influence the degradation of signal. You really should consider having Satellite in your home and then your signal will be awesome. Much better than cable. AND, since most stations are now going high def, it shouldn't be a problem for very much longer, if you are a network kind of gal or premium channel person......

However.

IF you watch scads of dvds, you definitely want plasma, although if you can't afford it, LCD will work fine, although dollar for dollar, LCD is more money. But, hey, this Fujitsu 50" for ONLY 10k is an awesome buy and will last a long time. AND. Most stations will be high def by 2007 or 2008, so why wait?

You can hang it above the fireplace. No worries about heat; but, you may want to place some form of barrier between the air flow from the wood burning fireplace and the television or consider devaluing your home by putting in a gas insert into your masonry fireplace.

So.

Here's what we're going to do.

We're going to wait because I'm getting a headache from the sales people and the research sites.

Let us know what you bought...and stay the hell away from Magnolia Hifi for answers....LOL
