The scam name might be more relvant for Sweden, where 50% of the energy comes from Hydropower.
If even 20% bought green energy the real impact on the environment would be zero, and I think it is well below 5% now. I just think there are better ways to spend money to benefit the environment than giving it to the electricity companies.

I have a Sony 32" Bravia and I have only noticed ghosting (image lag) during battle scenes in movies, and I don't think anyone else even notcies. And trust me, many a akrid and locusts have been pwn3d on that TV. Its response time is 8 ms but I'm sure the newer one's will be even lower.

If you're gonna play games burn in is still an issue on plamsa I believe, and I personally think LCD>Plasma anyways so I'd go with that.

I would go with either a Sony, Samsung, or Aquos LCD, and buy them on ebay if you can. So far on ebay we've boughten 4 TVs less than a year old that look like new from AuctionDrop on ebay for the following.....

32" LCD Sony Bravia (mine) a year and a half ago for $1000
50" LCD Projection Sony Wega (subs) a year and a half ago with stand for $1300
50" LCD Panasonic Projection last summer for $650
42" Vizio Plasma for $650 a month ago

All TVs came looking like they're new and we've never had a problem with any of them. My cousin is in the process of buying a 37" LCD Aquos from them for $700, the service is great and their prices are rediculous. So yeah, you're basically being a donk if you walk into Best Buy and pay full price.

Panasonic, 100%. Their chip blows away the competition.

www.avsforum.com is pretty good -- there's usually a thread for each model and you can figure out what issues people are having.

So, "" magazine is like ""?
Consumer Reports accepts no advertising to remain unbiased.

Edit: Looks like it, nice to see you EU folks have this kind of resource available. /Edit

To reduce the score of a big screen TV because of sound, when most people will be using a surround sound setup anyway? Not a point of contention in my book.
