I found this an interesting read:

Article link. (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_3424/273087528Pioneer%20DTV%20White%20Paper%20-%20FINAL.pdf)

Most shocking to me was that they paused a video game on a Plasma TV and left it for 48 hours which caused the image to be retained ("burned-in"). After a 24 hour movie loop it was gone!

Looks like the article is from 2005, but it still might put some minds at ease.

Very interesting...thanks for that Alpha.

As I'm very close to upgrading to a flat panel, this does give me more options. I've never been able to tell much difference between LCD and Plasma to be honest.

Now that Panasonic 1080P 50" is looking good at $3100 :)
