lot. Plasmas are rated for a lot more energy draw than you
actually see. When calibrated PROPER ntsc and you have a full
white display (most energy on a plasma) my 42 inch panasonic
only draws maybe 130 watts from the wall. The manual says it can
take up to 400 watts though. What you actually see is far
less... and a comparable LCD might be 2/3rds that so you are
talking a difference of mere dollars a year for a significant
picture increase.  Given the investment a TV really is plasma is
still the best value. The money saved in electricity will almost
never be recouped over its usable lifetime for a spendy lcd tv
that even comes close to plasma PQ.  RE: this is frustrating By

your lcd specs are for ccfl lcd's, not led/lcd's. i've never
