Thread Name: BS: LCD TV info
Subject: RE: BS: LCD TV info
A speaker in a faculty lecture series on my campus is a scientist engineer type who works with nano particles and nano machines and color. "Nanoscale Photonic Devices and their applications in optical and electronic systems" was the talk. I asked him after what kind of television he watches (the work he does leads right into that kind of thing, though his goals are much different than television). He said his next one will probably be an LCD, not a plasma. There's another very good looking technology out there that Radio Shack has, can't remember what it's called, but it is apparently very heavy. Not CRT, but still pretty big. Looks great, but too much bother to fool with, he said.
Robert Magnusson, Texas Instruments Distinguished University Chair in Nanoelectronics, at U Tx Arlington. Great recommendation from someone who can actually tell these things apart!
