haha, yeah, I actually do push plasmas to my coworkers as well -- of the 6 of us, 3 are pro-plasma, 2 are neutral, and 1 is pro-lcd... and the pro-lcd guy's only reason is that they are "brighter"
one thing that I don't think many people realize, is that most CONSUMERS think that lcd is better -- at least 80% of our plasma sales are uphill battles, so earning the trust of our customers is paramount -- let's face it, during heavy traffic times, customers aren't going to get that sort of one-on-one attention, and they're typically going to walk our the door with exactly what they asked for, not what is better
trust me, I'm extremely fearful about the current state of HDTV. we get more and more customers that demand lcd every day, and think that i'm pulling a fast one on them when i recommend plasma -- how frustrated do you think I get when that happens? it's exasperating!
oh well, Panasonic has some fantastic offerings this year, here's to hoping that they crush the competition!
