Right Side Up
Plasmas are much heavier than LCD's, right? Which has the best picture quality, on average?[/QUOTE
The weight differance is not much if you are talking the exact same size but the better plasmas do tend to be heavier.Also transporting them is tricky they should be standing right side up.
A plasma will produce pure blacks and whites and have better contrast ratios producing more accurate and 3d like image,it also has a faster refresh rate which is good for sports.
On the other hand lcd does not suffer from image retention(burn in) and has no glare issues because the surface is matt unlike a plasma which use a glass protective screen.

Wow, I didn't know a plasma must be shipped upright......that is a huge factor knowing there is no chance of it happening, if you plan to "smuggle" it in. Are you sure it is still a bad thing even if you wait to turn it on for a while after you have turned it vertical?
It's Gary, right?
Thanks dude!
