One of my friends has asked for my help in purchasing a new TV. He's looking for something around 50" and has a budget of aprox. $2000, which can't be raised, for the tv. We've been shopping around at local stores, Best Buy, Circuit City, and Nebraska Furniture Mart and have come up with these two. Having a PC input is a must for the display.

Mitsubishi WD-52527 aprox. $1800

Samsung HL-S5086W aprox. $2000

Both of these seem to have a very nice picture, but that is all based on the comparison of them being in a store and that particular feed they were recieving. Is there anything else we should be looking at in this price range? He is more concerned with a larger screen size, so flat panels are pretty much out of the question and a projector won't work for his application. Thanks for the help.

Look online as well, sometimes you can save a lot of money that way. I got my 50" Samsung DLP online for about $600 less than it would have cost me locally, and shipping was fast and easy.
