I'm moving to a smaller apartment and I need some advice when it comes to TV selection. At the moment I have an old Panasonic that I bought a couple of years ago, so it's pretty big. I mean it's not that the screen is big, just feels like it takes up a bit too much room. Anyway, so I was thinking about buying one of those flat screens. I'm just confused about what to buy. Some of my friends say that Plasma screens aren't as good as CRT. Is that right? Oh yeah and since the room is pretty small I was thinking about buying one of those screens that you put up on the wall. But then I started wondering. Isn't it a bit risky, I mean can they fall down easily? And I got the feeling that the screens you put on the wall is generally more expensive.

I would say that both LCD and Plasma TVs can produce great picture quality under the right circumstances. In a dark room I prefer the Plasma TV over LCD since I get a more cinema like feeling from the slightly warmer colours from the Plasma. They both have their pros and cons and both technologies have come a long way in the last two years. To be fair I would say that the LCD tvs has increased in quality a lot but they started of from with the worst picture quality.
Without trying to say one is better than the other I suggest you go down to your electronics store and try to find a viewing situation that will be similar to your own and watch for yourself. I suggest a darker room so that you can see how deep black levels the TV can produce. If you are moving from your old bulky CRT TV this is probably the one thing you will notice a big difference from. The CRT TVs can produce outstanding black levels and great contrasts. Plasmas generally produce better black levels than LCDs but the latest generation of LCD TVs is closing that gap quickly.
