Plasma has a much faster screen production rate if you are primarly buying for gaming. Go for a 1080p plasma you will save money and have that 1/100 of a second advantage

tigerdirect.com and newegg.com have the best prices I have ever found on TV's

then swing over to squaretrade.com for a warranty and your set. Save a ton of money too

I am trying to swing getting the Mitsubishi 93" tv in my new house for my man cave biggest free standing tv made

its a dlp rear projection 1080p 240hz but to make it soo big it has to be used in low light areas to control glare on the glossed screen.

It would look so bada**

How far are you going to sit back from the TV? In my DC house I had a 77" projection screen. It seemed big and I sat back 13 - 15ft.

Clay dont you have 2 jobs, cant you afford a tv/ps3. I would wait on the TV, Toshiba just came out with a 3d laptop screen so im waiting for a full tv size model before i get a new big screen.

Last time I went to fedex I just looked for one of the guys holding a sign with parking for 20$ little bit of a walk but not a big deal. Nowhere near the stadium is any parking except with a pass.

21 x 20 is a good size. Sorry I didn't convey it well, but I had an HD projector mounted on my ceiling with a 77" screen on my wall. I loved playing racing games on it as it felt like I was really driving. They have calculators online that tell you the optimum viewing distance.

Yea I have looked at a ton of different options. I may also just pick up a 55-73" tv on sale for black friday on the cheap and wait a year and see what comes out for bigger TV's Sharp already makes a 80" flat PANEL but its only 60hz and I havent really seen to much out on it yet.

Big screen store has a sale right now, 73 mitsu, 42" sharp, and 2 bluray players for $2k
