Lifespan of Flat Panel TVs
I’m sure you’ve been asking this question for some time now. Which type of flat panel TV will last longer, which is the most durable of ‘em all?
Basically, when the match-up is narrowed down to the two giants (plasma and LCD), the latter will win. LCD flat panel TVs have a lifespan of 30,000 to 60,000 hours, while plasma TVs go for 20,000 to 30,000 hours. But when the battle’s expanded to other, less-popular players, DLP wins out, with an estimated lifespan of 80,000 to 100,000 hours.

Watch TV on your Computer
Some people choose to spend their whole day on their computer. I’m one. Play games? Watch DVD movies? I can do that in my PC. Watch TV? Yeah, you can do that as well. You just need a TV Tuner Card.
A TV Tuner Card is a computer component that allows you to watch television shows right in your computer. Imagine working double time to finish documents and reports. Without walking away from your computer, you could have at least a bit of rest by watching TV on your computer. A little time to relax to relieve you from stress. Commonly, it is plugged into a PCI slot on your motherboard. But there are also external TV Tuners that can be plugged through the USB.
Another use of this card is that it can record television programs. So with it, you could record your favorite shows and watch it all over again. You can’t do that with a normal television set!
Sharp 108-inch LCD television
This is real entertainment. Sharp Electronics has released one of the world’s largest televisions, a 108-inch LCD television — larger than the biggest plasmas that have yet been announced. It is said to have a higher resolution than plasmas and lower in power consumption. The set is 93.9 inches high, 52.9 inches wide and 107.8 inches on the diagonal, and shines with 2.07 million pixels (1,920 x 1,080).
This would surely bring up the level of competition among the players in the plasma industry and the makers of LCD televisions. And what’s great about competition is that some tend to lower their prices in order to attract more customers. With the emergence of this kind of technology, imagine what we would have in our own homes in a few more years. Would you still go to movies? I don’t think so.
Imagine watching movies on this kind of TV or playing PS3 games. Spice it up with a cool surround sound system, and you would really feel like everything is real.
