| Article Title :: Home Electronics: The Facts About Plasma TV |
| |
| Not so many years ago, homes across the country watched
their favorite TV shows on a bulky floor model that took
awhile to warm up before you could see the picture, didn’t
offer anything in the way of remote control manipulation
and offered a washed out image on the TV’s cathode ray tube
hosted screen...and folks were thrilled to have such
marvelous technology in their midst. Today, all of that’s
been changed, with the introduction of plasma TV.Instead of trekking to the local theater to catch a

| |
| Enhanced Definition Television – also known as EDTV – is
one of the many modern viewing technologies of our time.
Often confused with HDTV capability, this is actually a
compromise between standard TV and HDTV. In fact, the
visual benefits are at least twice that of standard
television, since EDTV technology offers a minimum
resolution of 480p when used on a monitor. As a result,
you’ll find that this type of system is more expensive than
standard television, yet cheaper than HDTV technology.While there’s been a hew and a cry to purchase the more
expensive – and higher quality – HDTV, there are actually
