Sony and Sharp Backing LCD TVs Over Plasma?
LostCluster writes "Several reports out of Toyko are indicating that Sony intends on dropping out of the plasma TV business and ramping up productions of LCD TVs instead. Meanwhile rumors have it that Sharp is planning on investing US$1.9 billion on an LCD production plant."
LCD TVs over Plasma
I was thinking that they meant to display LCD TV over a plasma medium. Kinda like PPP over ethernet, or Voice over IP, or Ethernet over Reality TV.
Because the ad says so!
I still think that CRTs offer the best picture out there, at least for the price.
They also offer the most efficient hernia creation out there too, at any price.
36" Sony WEGA =~ 250lbs @ US$2100

100" Optoma 939 front projector & screen =~ 20lbs @ US$1700

Can't you get fired from Circuit City for saying things like that?
Next you're going to tell me that my new laptop doesn't _really_ need this 1200W subwoofer.
Naw, we have a legal obligation to say its optional :).
However, i AM in the laptop department, and i _know_ a laptop isn't REALLY a laptop without a 1200W subwoofer. AND, an extended warrenty (covers the laptop battery!)

The current lack of such responses indicates that irate plasma TV owners abstained from posting out of shame.

A projector. At least the bulbs are easy to replace when they go.
Half open the blinds, and project porn onto them so that the whole street can watch!.
thank God the internet isn't a human right.
Just checking! Trust but verify.
Self awareness - try it!
Which is why I call Comcast any time I need my 36" Wega moved. They usually send two guys, neither of whom is usually very smart, and it's generally easy to convince them that for some reason - the "cable" problem goes away if the TV is "over there".
