If it's old then it wasn't relevant in the "should I buy a new plasma or LCD" conversation you mentioned it in.

Still detecting a theme, Cletus.

Between this thread and the Plasma/LCD thread, I'm sure your recommendations will be taken for what they're worth.

I turned off the water and the marathon water heater in my old house when we left on our honeymoon. We were gone for 7 days, house temp, 52*, and when I got back, the water was still lukewarm.
Don't think there is a lot of wasted energy there...

OK, so you're saying it keeps it hot for a long time... However, mine doesn't heat the water unless I'm using hot water. Yours heats water and stores it hot just in case someone might, maybe want hot water. /=

How the heck do you not get a Bosch inline "right?"

I do. My plasma puts out a much better picture than my LCD.

Genetic limitations.

Same here - I prefer the picture on our 'old' (~6 year) plasma over our LCD.

Likewise. We just bought a new plasma about a year ago, and the picture quality was better than any LCD's we had to choose from. We still get comments on the picture when people come over and see it for the first time.

The only drawback to plasma I can think of is potential glare, but with a little planning you can avoid it. The picture, color contrast, and viewing angles all favor plasma.

Most LCD's use the glossy screen these days so the glare is hard to avoid with any of them...

I love glossy lcd screens. I have 3 pc monitors that are glossy and they make wide viewing just awesome.
