Not exactly a boating topic, but...

What is the difference between 720 and 1080 - resolution?

Which is better - LCD or plasma?

360 lines....... or 30% higher resolution

Plasma.

Don't believe anything anyone else tells you about Plasma vs LCD.

Hm, I would put the two models beside each other with the same normal
cable feed signal, try the remote at different angles and see the picture
before making a decision. LCD has come a long way, weighs less, runs
cooler and many say lasts longer than plasma. But if in the end you don't
like watching it, then it isn't worth anything.

I bet on boats most are LCD. Simple less power/heat and lighter.

Resolution? Higher is better so long as quality is good.

Me, I picked LCD.


Me too, for the boats. The LCD's are good, but you have to check the view
angle on some of them as they seem to vary, depending on who supplies the
LCD panel. I have a Sony Aquos on one boat and it is viewable across a
fairly wide angle. Another, made by Toshiba, (I think) has a very noticable
washout when viewing at the same angle as the Sony.

At home, we have plasmas.
