I think most people would rather get as big as they can in their room, so why would you want to get a smaller screen and sit closer? I'd rather get a bigger screen and sit further away. Would you rather have 14" and sit 1m away, or a 42" and sit 10m away?

Uh, how the [censored] is 10m infinate? Am i talking about 100m rooms? 2 acre rooms? for [censored] sake, 10m!!!! Quite a lot of people have big rooms you know! No need to be jealous, open your eyes, realise that many people have more money then you and can afford bigger houses with bigger rooms. And in any case, it was just an example anyway, a random figure, how did it get interpretated in that head of yours? Are you saying that most people wouldn't want as big a TV as they can get in their room? I mean, obviously when we are talking about 42" screens, it normally means the customer has a big room, nobodys gonna put a 42" in a 10ft room. And when you are talking about £4000 on a TV, that person must have a bit of money. So all i was saying to Andy was that, why would them people choose to buy a smaller tv and sit closer, when they can buy a bigger screen, make full use of their larger-then-yours room, and sit further back? It doesn't make any sense, bit like you reply.

The 625 lines doesn't come into it either, the ratios are different because of the pixels. So you might have a bigger screen, but you have more pixels so the pixels end up being just as small hence just as clear.

Magnifiable? Where did you get that from? Again, do you actually know your technology? I don't think so, so i'm not going to get into a technical argument about how pixels work in a plasma, obviously it would go over your head.

Also, plasma/LCD tech has already developed in the main, all that you get now will be smaller developments, nothing major. And yes prices are coming down, but you can say that about everything, mobile phones, cars, clothes, films, food etc.

...where everything is infinelty cheap...
Again, sounds like someone who can't afford one. I am not talking about everybody, when you talk about Ferraris you talk about millionaires, when you talk about people who buy £5000 TV's then you are talking about some pretty well off people. But again, it was just an example, i was saying is things go down in price all the time, thru-out its entire shelf life, so you can never say 'i will wait for it to come down in price' becuase it will ALWAYS be coming down in price, until it gets discontinued. So you have to choose a point where you decide to buy, otherwise, like i said, you'll be waiting forever.

If you keep waiting for the price to come down, you will be waiting forever. I could buy a LCD now, but if i decide to wait for the price to come down, say next year, i will get to next year, and the price will come down again, and so i wait again etc etc. At the end of the day, whenever you buy something, you always know that in a few months time you will have been able to get it cheaper, but not everyone can keep waiting, sometimes you just have to do it.

...and the boy wonder is infinately knowledgable.
And from the dickhead who knows nothing. Prove me wrong and next time, you sound like someone jealous becuase you can't afford one. Come with some intelligent replies which actually point out why my comments were wrong, rather then the 'infinate' BULL**S*hit.
Thanks for those pearls of wisdom, I shall sleep soundly.
