Rod, where is this tv to be located? Is there a lot of ambient light? If so, I wouldn't go with a plasma. I would get LCD.

It will be in a 10' by 20' room with a large picture window on the west wall that a lot of light will bleed in on.

Then I would say that your choice is obvious. LCD would work best. Plasmas have glass screens that create a glare in well lit rooms.

This is true. The good plasma screens have the anti-glare special coat on the glass, but I'm not sure how well they work. I never had an issue with mine, but it's never been exposed to sunlight so I can't be for sure.

there is one drawback to the LCD anti glare screens. Kids can scratch then the **** up. I just found this out a few weeks ago. Needless to say, my kids stayed away from me for a couple hours.

One thing about his room though, the sun does not ever get to the TV so I would imagine the only reflection he would see is the mirror reflections from the floor.

Well, he didn't call me back tonight on if he wanted the plasma so he missed out on the deal. Oh well.
Guess I have to keep looking.
