Get a 52 LCD!!!!! on you can see 180 degrees.. an make sure it is 1080

 

Im with varsis on this one I have all 3 in my house also happy with them all but nothing looks as good as a 50 inch hanging on your wall (ballin!!!!)
and being able to to see it from the side or not is called having good or bad offset

 

which ever you get, drop the extra cash and get a 1080pi over the 7?0pi. plasmas do need to be proke in properly. but their life span is misunderstood. they have a 10yr life span. but thats 10 years of continous play. plasmas and lcd's are a toss up. both are great. DLP are great for rooms that get a lot of sunlight. the dlp putts out more light the the lcd or plasma. i rock a 57" Samsung DLP. i've had it for about 5 yrs now. i had to replace the color wheel once($300), but other then that, its great. make sure you go with a good brand like sumsung, sony, toshiba, etc. LG makes a lot of the technology that goes into the plasmas and lcd's, where as texas instruments makes dlp. go big, and get 1080pi.

rock on!

 

So i think im going to go LCD, i went to Costco the other day and found a nice Philips or ViewSonic one. The Philips one is 42" and its 1400 i think. The ViewSonic is a 42" and its 1200 so pretty close im going to keep looking and home i get something nice.

thanks everyone for all the help
