A general rule of thumb.... for technology/gadgets, the quality of the product and the price goes hand in hand.... except, of course, Sony products, they are actually inversely proportionate.

GATEWAY = Absolute Crap.

The only thing shittier than their Plasma TVs are their tech support. If you ever buy Gateway you better pray that nothing ever breaks (which it will) otherwise you're screwed.

gateway doesn't actually make their plasmas, i'm not 100% sure but I think their plasmas are OEM sampo's or some other asian company and they are re-packaged.

don't get a plasma anyway, just don't, it's dated technology.

Yeah, I had heard that there was something new that's gonna make plasma sort of obsolete - but hadn't heard what it was or any other specifics.

Can you provide any links about the newer technology and when the experts think it might be commercially available?
