Updated Display Technologies Guide!

Good article but one thing on the DLP. I read somewhere that if get above or below eye level, the brightness starts to drop off. I wanted to check this out, since my son likes to sit on the floor and play his GC.
That's absolutely valid - but it's also valid for nearly all RPTVs due to many using a "type" of fresnel surface screen (inside) for focusing the image to a viewable area and a lenticular screen used for reshaping and directing light output within the target viewable area.

The brightness issue was just one of the many reasons I don't like RP or DLP TV's. My neighbor has a monster Mitsubishi in his living room, and it's picture just plain STINKS, IMO

The term "updated" really needs to be changed to 'outdated'.
2004? Really old information here.

Wow! You have actually made it easy for me to buy the right one for me. I was always so confused about these products and their differences.

After reading this article, I really wonder there is so much to learn :-( I really appreciate the efforts people take to share their knowledge. Thanks!

I accept: Television is in desperate need of replacement. To call it low tech would be an understatement at the very least. 19" from '91. Ya gotta love the real world deth, and life like images something of that caliber can deliver.

I've had a 60" Kuro Elite 151FD for the past couple of years, simply amazing. Just picked up a Sammy UN65C8000 65" LED so we'll see how it goes. Very amazing picture I have to say. Sammy is sharper on picture detail but the Kuro has better color.

BTW what ever happened to the promise of OLED sets? I hear they still cannot get the blue color correct... too bad.
