Is there any reason why I shouldnt buy the Toshiba 42HP86 Plasma TV?

December 3, 2008 – 2:53 pm

I have been looking at this TV for awhile. I am compelled to purchase the Toshiba 42HP86 because it is on sale for $1299.99. But I have also been looking at the Sony Grand Wega 46" LCD Projection for $1248.99. I am just looking for a cheap TV for my XBOX 360 and DVDs. I dont really care about surround sound I just want a decent TV. Are these bad purchases or not?

P.S. - They both have HDMI inputs.

I have to respond the the

"crack the membrane and the plasma will escape"
comment

WHAT ???

A plasma display is a HEAVY CRT with no neck or deflection yoke
It is usually protected by 1/4 or thicker pane of shatterproof glass and that is usually anti glare

A small nipple exist usually in the upper rear corner where the
PICTURE TUBE is evacuated and the argon plasma is injected during manufacture ( only place for plasma to escape) barring hitting it with a sledge hammer

Now with that said
The Sony 46" LCD TV would be far better
for the usage you claim XBOX 360

To protect yourself purchase a good UPS
Uninteruptable Power Supply for the LCD
the Lamp runs at about 1400 degrees
sudden power loss will damage the LAMP
usually destroying it
Whats nice about a LCD TV is replacing the LAMP
restores BRAND NEW brightness to the picture

Can you recommend an affordable LCD or Plasma TV that has a built in web browser? Need to show web site on TV

December 3, 2008 – 2:53 pm

Within our company we have charts and graphs with current sales metrics on an internal intranet. We want to put these up live on a TV in each of our seven offices. We are aware we could do this with a VGA cable to a laptop/desktop but we were hoping for a TV Model that could connect via ethernet or wireless and includes a web browser.

Actually, Panasonic has just recently announced their 850U models which may do just what you are asking for. These TVs include what they call Viera Cast, "a web menu that's built into the television, letting you enjoy great online entertainment like YouTube™ videos and your digital photos on Picasa Web Albums™, all with just a click of a button - - no PCs or external boxes are required."

Here are the links to these TVs:

i have a Panasonic 42 Inch Plasma TV that keeps shutting off. I unplug it then it comes back on. Picture is ok

December 3, 2008 – 2:34 am


I'm curious to this also. I have a 42" Panasonic Plasma. (it is nearing 5 years old) that has just started exhibiting the same behavior over the past week. Picture is fine also.

Honestly, it sounds like a power supply problem, but I haven't had the time to research it in depth. (or have a repairman visit since it's out of warranty and the amount CC wanted to charge me for extending it was more than I'd pay for a new tv)
