    Plasmas use natural gases (xenon, neon, etc) that glow and produce their own light when electrically charged. Since they don't have back-lights (like LCDs), they are able to produce true blacks -- no electric charge = no light whatsoever.

    Re: LCD/Plasma HDTV Poll

    Pat, I assume (perhaps wrongly) that you are looking to buy a television. At this time Costco is selling online only an Envision LCD 26" TV with a 2 yr warranty for $399 0r a 32" Envision LCD for $499. That may not be what you are looking for but for a small time guy like me that is right up my alley and I just ordered a 32".
