I have not seen a single thing about this TV that I don't like so far, unlike the LCD TVs that I have in the house, and the LCDs that cross my bench for repair, all of which suffer from motion artifacts, scaling artifacts, and motion blur ... This plasma TV has produced absolutely stunning HD pictures from the Winter Olymics, with not the slightest sign of motion artifacts of any description, even on the fastest content like downhill skiing, and bobsleigh etc. In contrast, the same content that I have seen on LCDs, has been perfectly dreadful.

I ask because, well, 99.9% of the other posters here aren't, and it's unusual to see a woman posting in such a newsgroup (actually pretty much on Usenet in general, a few newsgroups excepted). None of my business, I know, but I'm curious. -- You were wrong, and I'm man enough to admit it. - a Usenet "apology"
