#2) the power consumption difference is not even that bad between a 50" plasma and a 42" lcd. Essentially they are saying it the article
YOU posted, that a 50" plasma will cost exactly $19.08 per year more to operate than the 42" lcd. HOLY FREAKING CRAP, BREAK THE BANK AND GO POOR!!! You spend $2000 on a tv and $20 a year kills you? BULL.
The difference, for the real world is negligable.
What is more telling is that the LCD used 35% more power than the manufacturer listed while the plasma used 24% less power.
You are barking up the wrong tree with inaccurate claims that you cannot justify. Rest your case all you want. If so, you have lost your case.
