I know this forum mainly deals with computer monitors, but I figured you guys would be familiar with TV displays as well. I'll be buying a TV within the next week or so and need to research my options. Can anyone provide links to good TV forums or articles comparing the various technologies?

I like the price to size ratio and am satisfied with the picture quality of DLP or rear projection TV's, found a 60" at ABT electronics for less then $1500. The only draw back that I can initially see is the view angle, so I'll have to run some measurements to see if it's suitable for the location. I wanted to read up on relevant information on today's DLP TV's and compare them to LCD and Plasma offerings. I'd like a large TV ( > 40"), but don't want to spend more then $2000 on one, so 60" LCD/Plasma is out of the question.

So if anyone can provide good sources of information on this topic I'd be grateful.

Thanks,

Jarek

Is this for a PC?

This will eventually end up being connected to a media center pc, but initially will be used for regular TV viewing ie channels, DVD, and Blue-Ray eventually.
