Yo B, We have a 42" LG Plasma, and it was pretty much $100 plus less than a comparable LCD.
So, was it less or more? Geez, this guy is always talking in riddles.
We have just the one TV. It's an Sony 42" LCD @ 60 hz, going on three years old now and still going strong. If I have one complaint it's that there can be some ghosting on all dark screen shots, smoke or fog, that sort of thing. I went with the LCD at the time because this is a very bright room most of the time and LCD was supposed to be better for that.
