Thanks, Sivar. At this point I am going to stay with the Panny VT60 already in the cabinet. To the left of the fireplace is a series of tall windows that will rarely be closed as that is the lake view. A plasma is challenged enough in that moderate light during the day, so I am avoiding the projector as the light challenge would be even greater. Thanks for the ideas though. And yes, Plasma is dead, but not in my house. Except for a bathroom LCD TV, plasma is all I own.
