I won't buy a plasma again... and LCD's are just expensive. I have a Mitsubishi 60" DLP and I love it. It is thicker than an LCD and Plasma, of course... but you get an awesome picture for half the price and the replacement lamps for the Mitsubishi are only $99 (compared to $199-299 on some other brands).
These are pretty cheap at HHGREG. I bought mine for a little over a grand when they were running a 20% off sale.
