Should I get a LCD or Plasma?

[kozumasbullitt]

the differences between the 2 are not great when you compare apples to apples. sony xbr (lcd) line vs panny (plasma) are going to be very close, the panny may have better blacks but i have a 52 xbr4 and my buddy has a 50 panny 80pz800u and when i look at one to the other it would not sway me to buy one over the other because there is not much of a difference. i have delt with image retention on my philips plasma so i stayed away from plasmas and got the xbr to use in my living room with my ps3,360 and my GF's wii. if i had to do it all again i would buy a lcd again because no matter how much people say burn in is a myth, its your money you are out when it happens to you (even lcds burn in, it happens to our older hospital displays all the time and we replace them because it gets hard to read what is really being displayed).
