LOL, i know PP can be a bit anal about the topic, but his points do have merit... But he is a bit like a religious nut trying to shove their book down your throat!
Sidenote: I also prefer plasma
I find your comparison of shoving religion down ones throat exaggerated because surely that would equate to forcing plasma on people who want LCD without considering they could benefit from wanting LCD and vice versa.
I like
both technologies and advise on both, I want LCD for certain things and plasma for others. Very often either tech will suit certain circumstances.
Enquiring about a person looking for TVs' room, their lighting conditions, their viewing distances and intended content is what I do. Hypothetically speaking, if they will indeed benefit from a different tech they originally sought then it's surely worth mentioning such alternatives if people are to go and judge in a bright showroom if their conditions are completely different?
At the end of the day I am all for a balanced open view on TVs, which buyers who aren't in the know will not get when going to their local Game/Makro and viewing TVs with a salesman in a bright demo room.
"Wow that R15,000 LED is so bright and vibrant it puts that plasma to shame! Plasma so dim, I could not have that in my house!". Yet the person buying would never consider they have dimmer ambient light, or further-that-aisle viewing distances, and how their showroom floor judgement is completely completely flawed.
I request that, if it really is true, when I really am forcing plasma like religion that it gets pointed out. I do not believe it's true. I strive to help people who can easily be taken advantage of by charlatans of the trade.
