I must say that one of the best investments I have made around the home is to get a plasma tv. Its big, its loud and the picture is incredible and certainly justifies the price that I paid way back when I got it and if I could just stop loosing my remote control then it would literally be perfect. The only thing that I really need is a plasma mount to mount it on the wall rather than sitting on a tv cabinet like I have it now. Then it would be perfect!
