We are just about to purchase a new TV looking at a flat screen 42" one. Just wondering as anyone any recommendations if we should go for a LCD one or a Plasma one. Also what are the pro's and con's?

I was in DID Electrical recently and I spent some time looking at the TVs, for future reference. I was appalled at the poor quality of all the LCD screens. I think the problem is that the screens are too big
unless you have high def signal at home, you will not get the best picture from your tv, and most people dont. The reality, is that the best tv is an crt tv 100 htz although they are not the "IN" item.
I disagree. CRT is old technology and both LCD and Plasma are superior in terms of picture quality, even on Standard Definition sources. Of course High Definition feeds bring out the best in LCD and Plasma, so I would always advise potential buyers to also invest in either a HD DVD or Blu-Ray player. If finances do not permit, invest instead in a much cheaper upscaling DVD player.
They go into Currys and the likes and see HD demos and are amazed by these new HD panels. They then get them home and hook up a poor feed like a roof aerial and the picture is crap.
It is better than the old Sony CRT I had before that.
I agree that the picture will look worse than a CRT when fed with the likes of a roof aerial. But when buying a HDTV, one should ditch the foof aerial and upgrade to digital TV. I have a SKY (only SD) subscription and am very pleased with the image quality on a Toshiba 32" LCD. It is better than the old Sony CRT I had before that.
Breaking News...hold off on that LCD or Plasma purchase!
