I plan to buy a 50" plasma HDTV this X'mas (got to give myself a toy Wink).

I like to watch DVDs (not HD DVDs) and PBS/ABC/CBS/etc. HD programs. As long as the TV can produce correct skin tones, it's good for me. I don't plan to play video games on it.

Any recommendations for a good plasma HDTV?

Walmart has a very good price on a Panasonic 42" Widescreen Plasma HDTV w/ Built-In Digital Tuner, TH-42PX6U ($1,294):

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5131708&sourceid=03351581080644509647

It's out-of-stock now. But you can print the page and take it to Circuit City or Best Buy for a price match.

The Panasonic 50" plasma TV (50PX60U) deal at Circuit City is a very good deal.

(Panasonic plasma HDTVs ranked pretty high by the Consumer Reports.)

I head that Best Buy will price match 110%. If so, the price macthed deal at Best Buy is even better.

Does anyone know if this Panasonic has a PC/VGA port? I can't tell from the Best Buy specs? I want to plug in my laptop and work wireless on the couch...gotta love telecommuting!

This model 42PX60U does NOT have VGA port for PC input. For that, you need to get the 42PX600U model, which is more expensive.

For PC gaming, you might also consider 1080p LCD TVs.
