Interesting.. I suppose if one spends a few hundred more $$ for the LED, there would be a cost-savings as a result of less energy consumption. How long it would take to make up the savings is anyone's guess.. I suppose it depends how much television one watches. I watch about 20-30 hours per week.
Thanks again folks.
Oh, I forgot to ask what brand!!!!! LOL! That will start up another thread I suppose! I hear SAMSUNGS are great quality and value. A friends said steer clear of LG.
