Take this into consideration, granted these are extremes but support Loban's example. The Pioneers are considerably the best sets in the market. Why is it that the 720p plasmas that they have make lcds and low end 1080p plasmas look like total crap.
Resolution is the least thing you should be worried about.
Panasonics that are 720p will look better with a blu-ray on it compared to a Vizio with 1080p especially if it has 120Hz.
The Vizio is good for the average consumer. Not to mention you're right they'll dip below $1k if sold at Costco.
But at the end of the day I assure you what it comes down to is picture quality and processors in these sets. And anyone who knows anything about picture quality will tell you the Panasonic 720p plasma will look better than Vizio 1080p lcd especially if it has 120 Hz.
I'm assuming here but it's a pretty educated guess that the Panasonic will still look better.
The car comparison works because they both are cares but what matters is the engine. Same thing with TVs.

I agree with you Loban on your comparison.
