If your still interested in an answer, its about how the display is constructed. Plasma Tubes vs. a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). LED Tv's are Light Emitting Diodes. LCD's and LED Tv's are super THIN. Plasmas have been slowly phasing out. I personally love glass front screen on Plasmas vs. a flat matte screen on a LED/LCD. The Plasma picture is/can be sharper than the comparable LED/LCD screen and has darker blacks than the LCD/LED. Refresh rates are 600hz vs a LCD or LED at 60hz or 120hz. For computers or games the Plasma is the way to go.
I have 2 plasmas, a 46 and a 43... And Ill buy another one when my 26" LCD dies, I am biased to the Plasmas, because they are excellent, less expensive than the same sized TV in a LCD/LED. You can't compare a $349 43" Samsung Plasma at 1080P and 600hz to a $300 46" LCD at 60hz. No comparison. Side by sides are great, but when you get a plasma home, you'll wish you bought one sooner.
Samsung - 43" Class (43" Diag.) - Plasma - 720p - 600Hz - HDTV
Samsung - 51" Class (50-3/4" Diag.) - Plasma - 1080p - HDTV
