Plasma Vs LCD TV



...Which one is better for you?

The main advantage a plasma TV has over an LCD is the price of a larger flat panel TV. LCD screens jump quite a bit in price when you start going over 32". If you are on a limited budget and you want a 42 inch screen then the plasma is most likely the one for you. If you have deep pockets and like hi-def and require your image to run at true Native HD resolution then the larger LCD is your best bet.

For the smaller size flat screens 15"-36" the LCD is the way to go. They offer better resolution and if you have noticed the prices keep coming down.

Summary

Plasma's are less expensive for the larger screen sizes and have a slight advantage when it comes to extreme viewing angles. The plasma also wins in handling fast moving images. Both Plasma and LCD now have about the same life span. LCD's are lighter, thinner,and not as fragile as plasma's. When it comes to brightness/contrast many experts favor the plasma but many swear the LCD has similar quality but it really comes down to the make and model.

A Brief History of Computer

Uninformed researchers of computer history would probably note the first computer in the mid 1930`s. In reality, this history dates nearly 2000 years ago with the invention of the abacus where the user programmed beads using formulated constructs. Although many historians caution against the use of the word computer except to define 20th century computers, a broader understanding illuminates an instrument designed by a Frenchman and which functioned as a calculator and was designed for a tax collector in the 1600`s. Improvements to this calculator continued through the 19th century. Similar work was underway in England and with the support of the government a `mechanical` calculator was invented. It was powered by steam and supported a fixed program for its use. This calculator went through many changes until an automatic calculator was invented. Following this flurry of discovery and invention, little changed until the early 1900`s when detailed mechanical and transportation work req...

Part I - Pixar, iPod and the Second Coming of Steve Jobs

I just finished listening to the book Icon, which is the biography of Steve Jobs. Jobs is best known for starting Apple computers with Steve Wozniak, his life long friend. But what I was really surprised to learn is that Steve Jobs also bought Pixar from George Lucas and made it into the world class animation studio that it is today. I also had no idea that Steve Jobs’ net worth is in the billions! I always pictured him as a desperate guy who wanted to get back to running Apple so bad, he took a salary of $1 per year. Another interesting thing about Steve Jobs is his commitment to the Zen philosophy and to creative, elegant design. But it was his temperamental and stubborn management style which called his leadership abilities into question by the Apple board of directors. His inability to be flexible and adapt to the market is what got him fired from Apple. These conflicting elements of his personality made him seem all the more hypocritical to the people around him. The other thing t...
