TV- LCD or Plasma ? - Budget= Rs.1 Lakh

[s18000rpm]

what do you guys suggest?


My dad has already booked a LG Plasma (42") for Rs.96k.

my friends say LG has poor customer support & LG is way behind Sony (obviously) & Samsung in both LCD & Plasma dept.




i'm thinking of Samsung 42" (around 63k) & a Sony home theatre, or a complete Sony Solution. (Sony HT + Sony Plasma/LCD)


guys i need quick reply, coz by Monday or Wednesday, the LG noobs will send the bill

is getting a DVD Player better or a 5.1/7.1 DVD Music system (3k+ Watts)???

& what about Blu-ray Players?

reply with Details (TV model, Home theatre model # + cost...) are most Welcome

------------

>>btw is Plasma better than LCD, in terms of clarity?

coz i heard Plasma hasnt reached that level of development (as LCD has) yet.

whats the cost of bigger screen LCD/Plasma TV? like 60"+?

(rit now i'm in KGF, no shops)



PS. we're lookin for wall mount. TV.

as far as technology is concerned ... LCD - development in lcd has improved whilst theres not much happened as far as plasma is concerned

 

[s18000rpm]

well guys. LG is finalised.


getting it, coz it has PIP, TV Recording (like media centre pc's),... & has VGA interface too

good, it'll be REALLY great to race in a 42" screen & also play games like Half Life 2 & CSS.

Ok, I think its LG Time machine where u can record TV on HDD built in TV

How much u gona record on 80 GB

 

[s18000rpm]

any option for upgrading the HDD (@ Dealer's itself) ?

i'll go there 2morow or on Friday & update on model #... the thing is the TV has been booked by my dad's office guy, so i dont hav any details.

 

[utsav]

80 GB will be very low.if it can be upgraded to 500GB then its cool

Well.. I Can't say.. But does Mac Mini have a Media Center Software? If it does, Mac Mini + Sony Bravia 32" is a much better Investment

 

[PraKs]

NO U cant upgrade HDD

LG Tvs are made in factory. LCD cant be open in Show room & Just fitted with new HDD as like we do in computer cabinet

MACs do not have any good tv tuner cards. You would be interested in some discovery here: *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51686
