Let's be serious here.. The difference between powering a 50" plasma vs a 47" LCD according to my KIll-a-Watt measurements is about $2-3/month. If a potential buyer is debating the 2 choices and bases the decision on that, then they would probably be better off not buying a $1200+ television.
The truth is I have people ask me for opinions on the 2 constantly, and the one thing they always mention is the plasma burn-in nonsense.
Keep your lower-power TVs, I am loving my plasmas because I have a better looking display (which is my main criteria for judging display devices), and the income to not stress about the extra few pennies it costs to watch each day.
