If you want the best picture with a computer, only look at DLP. They are
the only truly digital TV's (signals are not converted to analog internally
like LCD, Plasma and LCOS). In addition, they have greater Contrast, a
deeper black level, much faster refresh times, no burn in, and use less
electricity than LCD and Plasma. Plus, they never develop divergence
errors, and there are no phosphor dyes in the screen to fade and color shift
over time. Your best bet would be to preview a typical computer desktop at
high resolution on an LCD, then a Plasma, then a DLP. Your eyes will
immediately tell you which is better...the difference on the DLP will as
drastic as watching a VHS tape versus watching a DVD.
