Default Getting a Plasma/LCD - Help suggest plz... :)

I'm giving my dad my 42" Samsung DLP since it's too bulky for my room. I'm looking to get a nice 42"+ Plasma or LCD whatever. Prolly plasma since it'll be cheaper. What do you guys suggest for a nice price.

Purpose: Hidef gamming (Xbox and PC), Animation, Movies, etc...So HDTV is prolly a must.

Theme color: mainly silver with minor black to match my Onkyo HT-S787S system.

I'm looking at the Magnavox 42" that BB will have on sale on Black Friday for $1,500. Is there any others that you guys suggest? Budget is $2.5K. Btw, my room is very big, like a master bedroom so a 42" won't be problem.

Thanks

My aunt and uncle have a few 50" Panasonic Viera's in their house; they are really nice and you can see them pretty well during the day time.

cool, I'm trying to keep it above 42" as I'll be getting the Dell's 24" Monitor soon, so anything in betweens is kinda pointless :dunno:

SO far, Votes for Samsung and Panny. I do like my Samsung 42" DLP though
