I am sick of this FUD. Please, if you are going to post things about plasmas, at least be accurate. Of the larger plasma makers, most like Panasonic or Pioneer are currently at 60,000 hours until phosphor half-brightness, and the majority of the rest are at 30,000. 20,000 hours was right in 2002, when those stats were published, but just as in computers, things move fast. If I were to quote the state of Linux in 2002 as the current state, I am sure I'd get flamed mightily.
Sorry if I came out as mad at you, I'm not, but there was another post here which claimed 10,000 hours as the current life span, and I just want to set the record straight.
BTW I do not own a plasma, I own a Sony XBR CRT.
