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?

Plasma tv`s was working in the 70`s and was never brought out on the
market. They was done by sony. Now sony is sorry that they have
waited so long to bring them out.

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.

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.
