[UK-CONTEST] Plasma or LCD

[Clive GM3POI]

John,
As has been said avoid the Plasma and also be careful with LCD. I have an 
expensive Sony 40" 1080 HD and that even puts out some RF admittedly not 
much but I fear that with some other makes it could get worse. We are all in 
the situation of really wanting to try them out beforehand.
