Display Format Technologies Comparison

An anonymous reader writes "The differences between LCD, Plasma, DLP, LCOS, D-ILA, and CRT are revealed, as well as their associated advantages and disadvantages, as Audioholics post a new version of their Display Technologies Guide With advances companies like Intel (LCOS) and Texas Instruments (HD2+) are making in chip technologies and cost reductions, one wonders just how soon CRT based TVs will become an antiquity we discuss with our grandchildren as they install their new high resolution, lightweight, affordable displays on their walls."

    Hi all. I've noticed that a lot of you mention that you play video games with your significant other. I think thats cool. I actually am quite jealous. Any who, I was wondering what I could do to meet a cute girl who likes video games? I'm still young (25) and out of school. My job is the last place to meet anyone, and all my guy friends aren't into gaming, so I don't game socially. I assume hanging out outside the nearby Gamestop store isn't the answer. How do I bring up gaming with girls I meet to see if they're into it? I'm not a hardcore gamer, but play like 5-6 hours a week. Nonetheless, It's something i always look forward to. What are signs that a girl might be into gaming? Here's my ideal scenario: Me :: I just bought Baldur's Gate for the PS2! Wonderfully cute girl :: great! It's two players. Mind if I play? Me :: Sure. Girl :: Can I sit there while we play? points to my dilznick* Me :: Yes. Yes you can And we live happily ever after Wow, I can't wait for BG2 for PS2... Oh wait. that's for another thread. What was I talking about now?

    They forget to mention projectors, you get a bigger image cheaper than plasma

    True, but these transmissive technologies won't require you to draw the blinds and dim the room lights to see them.

    Personally I'm up for skipping all this 2D crap and having scanning lasers shone directly onto my retinas, but then again I've read Snow Crash and that's put me off for a while. ;)

    I believe Ann and Matt both do with relish but that George and Jim are straight guys.
    I'd take Ann in a heartbeat she is a major league babe and much smarter than Hillary and those FUGLY baby-killer-lobby Dykes.

    People who support John Kerry are SO HOT! Have you seen his cousin, for instance? Unbelievable! What is it about Kerry supporters that makes them so attractive?
