[ale] OT: Plasma TVs and burn-in

[Dow Hurst]

Plasma TVs lose over time the internal gas mixture in each 
cell of the screen used to produce the picture.  Maybe a 10 
year lifetime for a good picture is what I've read.  I 
really don't know what the lifetime would be in the field. 
The newest LCD TVs look like a better technology.
