Plasma TV Myths

"These aren't exactly flush economic times. But believe it or not, according to a new Consumer Electronics Association survey, the most desired electronic gift item for this holiday season is a plasma TV. By far the most popular plasmas are the 42-inchers, which are broad and sweeping enough to make any wall blush with pride. But if you're about to go buy one, three words of advice: Don't do it. Before you drop all that money on a 42-inch plasma TV, consider dropping it on a different kind of flat-screen TV, one that until this month wasn't even in the running: LCD."

This article shows how LCDs are better than their plasma counterparts in picture quality, size, resolution, power consumption and longevity. I was at a friend's place a couple of months ago and he owns both a plasma TV and an LCD TV (good jobs lead to good gadgets :)) and he was definitely more impressed with the LCD. Has anyone else had the same experience?
