Kim,
A. Turn off your caps lock. Nobody likes to listen to a screamer. B. Invest in a dictionary it will help you enter adulthood. C. Most plasma television video monitors will display computer video...but poorly. Poorly because they are carefully designed to display interlaced video signals per television video standards (480 or 576 horizontal scan lines per image). Not progressive-scanned computer video. Some plasma televison video monitors can display computer video signals, but again, at television resolution, not computer resolution. As a test, put your eyes about 10 cm (~4 inches) from your favorite computer screen and note how the elements of the picture look. Now visit an appliance store and put your eyes about the same distance from a plasma TV display. See the difference? Repeat at greater distances. Now try all the above with any other kind of big-screen TV (LCD, DLP, projection, big CRT). See the difference? If not...as usual...buy the cheapest technology...put a video card in your computer with TV output...and enjoy fuzzy.... |

Plasma TVs generally do a darn good job at displaying computer video, so long as you use their native resolution. Generally this is 720P, which is 1280x720 progressive scan. While native interlaced plasmas may exist, the vast majority of them (all that I've ever seen) are high definition widescreen. |

Mr. Sweet, weren't plasma displays used in laptop computers some time ago? |

No, they were invented at the University of Illinois, produced
by Owens-Illinois, and originally implemented as computer terminals by Magnavox. They were in production by 1972. Fujitsu bought rights to some of the patents and produced their own plasma panels for computer and defense use. IBM did too -- and later sold their plasma panel line to Photonics. Sony didn't enter the picture until more than 20 years later. tvguy wrote: Plasma tv`s was working in the 70`s and was never brought out on the market. They was done by sony.

They were also monochrome, lacking the technology at the time to create good color. Also the prototype was quite a small screen with a large electronics package, it wasn't until modern chips containing tens of millions of transistors in a single package that plasma became practical. |
