    Are we talking about Vizio or Bose here?

    That's gotta hurt a little there Pix.

    I'm sure he'll point out that he owns a Vizio LCD not a plasma. Not sure why you guys bother trying to edumacate him tho.

    nothing the nimrods on this site say bother me a bit.
    Its like a bunch of boobs with square wheels making fun of the guy with round ones.
    Plasma is a fundamentally flawed tech, and the only question is can the industry
    sell enough units to break even to enough idiots before word gets out.
    Plasma will be nowhere to be found in five years except attics and yard sales.

    Yeah, but I am not the one who owns the Bose equivalent of a TV. LCD vs. Plasma aside, it's all about marketing to people who don't know any better.

    Just go ahead and buy the Bose 123 system now and get it over with.

    Like the insane marketing going on , trying to get pinheads to buy plasmas based on snob appeal.

    Just go ahead and buy the Bose 123 system now and get it over with.
    Just go ahead and marry your cousin and get it over with.
