best quality 40 inch hdtv image
Q. I have a toshiba laptop and i want to connect it to my 40 inch samsung lcd to watch movies and stuff. I want to know which cable i need for the the BEST quality output. thanks
Answer
The best picture would be with a DVI or HDMI cable if your laptop has that output. You can achieve full 1920x1080 picture quality with those two. If not, then use VGA. Your laptop definately has that output.

When is the best time to buy a new tv? Before or after the Superbowl?

Could someone give a brief overview of the differences between LED and HDTV? (I am thinking of purchasing something around 40 inches.)
Also, my purchase would not have to coincide with a Superbowl party. Do you think that prices would be better before or after the game? Or is there a better time of year to purchase a new televsion as new models are introduced?
Answer
There are 3 type of HDTV which popular in market now LCD HDTV, Plasma HDTV and LED HDTV.
Plasma uses gas plasma cells charged by precise electrical voltages to create a picture.
LCD screens (liquid crystal display) are in layman's terms sandwiches made up of liquid crystal pushed in the space between two glass plates. Images are created by varying the amount of electrical charge applied to the crystals
LED-backlit LCD television or LED TV is an LCD TV that uses LED backlighting rather than fluorescent lights used in traditional LCD televisions
Each technology have their pro & con, here are pro & con for your decision
Pros of Plasma
- Better contrast ratio
- better ability to render deep blacks, more color depth,
- better motion tracking (response time)
- more availability in very large screen sizes.
Cons of Plasma
- more susceptible to burn-in (although this is not as much of a factor now, due to technology improvements in the past few years)
- more heat generation (as well as more power consumption)
- screen glare in brightly lit rooms
- heavier weight, and more delicate to ship.
Good brand that I would recommend for Plasma is Panasonic or Samsung

Pros of LCD
- LCD television advantages include no burn-in susceptibility
- cooler running
- less screen glare, more functional at high altitudes
- longer display life (although improvements are being made in Plasma screen life)
- looks better in brightly lit rooms
- less power consumption than Plasma.
Cons of LCD
- Lower contrast ratio
- not as good rendering deep blacks
- not as good at tracking motion (although this is improving, especially with the implementation of 120Hz refresh rates (and some now offer 240Hz) on higher-end models).
Good brand for LCD that I would recommend is Samsung or Sony
