[QUOTE="rctyke"][QUOTE="Boxcutters"][QUOTE="rctyke"][QUOTE="firebreathing"]

[QUOTE="rctyke"]That is why you should consider getting a DLP HDTV such as one from Samsung, those have great picture quality and great prices for their size and features. Sure you have to make room for it (they are not skinny as the Plasmas or LCDs) but be creative of your set up, say put it where there is empty space or get a stand for it's size. What is better, get a Front Projector for a larger screen size (even up to '100 inches) you just need to know how to set it up properly and you can have a larger, clearer, and even better picture than the LCD's or plasmas.l0053

or he could just get a plasma and have superior color, while not having a bulky tv. PLasmas are just as expensive as lcd tvs and they last just as long. I watch blu-ray (1080p native) on my 720p tv and i dont notice anything wrong.

What plasma are you refering to? If you are refering something like a Pioneer or a high end Panasonic, those are more expensive at the screen sizes of the DLPs. If Plasmas are at a similar price at a similar size, I would rather pick that over a DLP. Also front projectors can project a much larger picture than the sizes of the DLP tvs or plasmas, and know some of the models outperform them, so the real issue people face is brightness, since it is harder to see it during bright conditions than it is to see a plasma or a DLP, but keep the room light controlled, and you should do fine. The reason I do not have one is that I can't afford one right now that is a 1080p, so it is money saving for me. Also projectors with their ability to project a larger image show the benefits of 1080p much easily.

I got the newest high end plasma for under $1000. You don't know how to shop.

DLPs don't give as good picture as the new plasmas, or even LCDS.

What model, or brand is it? Also what size is it? I doubt you could find a Plasma or an LCD that can outperform a DLP at that price, let alone screen size.

I have to agree with rctyke here.

Let's see:

My 61" Samsung LED DLP (HL61A750) on Amazon = $1759

Pioneer 60" KURO PDP-6020FD on Amazon = $4999

I seriously doubt the 60" KURO can be purchased for anywhere near what I purchased my DLP at. I'm also willing to bet money that my profesionnaly calibrated LED DLP will match or beat *ANY* LCD in terms of picture quality.

Will the KURO have better picture quality than my DLP? Yes. But it is not $3000 better. Not even close.

that last satement is pretty much subjective, as someone with that much money would probably think the difference is worth it. plus you have to add in the cost of having your set calibrated by a pro, the extra space you'll need, tv shelf that can take more weight and yea. I wouldn't ever go with a dlp, espeically when i could get a 50" plasma for a good price and be completely happy.

[QUOTE="firebreathing"][QUOTE="Large_Soda"]

[QUOTE="firebreathing"]if you think it's hard for a pc to "outperform" ps3, then i suggest you show me a ps3 game that uses DX10 features. no, it doesnt cost 2000$ to build a good computer................Large_Soda

Where did I say hard for a PC to outperform a PS3? Where did I say a good computer costs $2000? I'll tell you where. Nowhere.

If you actually took the time to read what I said, you would understand (or perhaps not) that I was simply implying that I don't know what specs he is running on his PC, and to offer a blanket statement inferring that the PC will be better may not be true.

It is conceivable to have a PC in this day and age that will under-perform when compared to a PS3.

my comp is 7years old and can still run current games, unless his computer is from the 90s, i dont see how it wouldnt perform just as well.

So everything in your computer is 7 years old? What are your specs? You're saying your machine can compete with a PS3?

My comp can run FEAR and Oblivion better than any console. don't believe me??? i don't really care, you can say you're "right" or wahtever if it helps your ego.

Wildflower, you didn't get it quite right, here, I'll fix it:

click. click click click, click clickity click. Oh look, these baddies are blue instead of brown. click click click click click. clickity click click. Oh hey, the environment changed. click click click. clickity clickity click. oop, now the baddies are green. click click click.

There, that seems more accurate.

if they put out too much and it has hardware issues they waste quite a lot of money. If you want something sooner than someone else you'll be paying more usually, basic rule of our economy :)

Most guys like to fool around with other women. Marriage means you can't do that any more.

What he said.

But to elaborate, men have a biological tendency to procreate as much as possible so that their species will not become extinct. This is also true of male animals. It's just how us earthlings are.
