It would also be a point of order to mention that plasma 'operation' costs are more or less the same as an LCD. With a dark movie a plasma is more efficient than lcd but on the flipside, a bright movie uses more energy. Thus making the debate a wash overall. That being said, the new lines of plasmas from Samsung and Panasonic both claim significantly lower energy costs (40% less according to the specs) which would put the plasma technology on par with any lcd ( light and dark movie performance) out there not sporting led lighting.
