OK, now I'll answer. Even in Canadian dollars, that's not a great deal
unless you are dead-set on a plasma.

With 50" 1920x1080 pixel displays coming out in the next few months for
US$4000 MSRP (or less), it seems silly to me to pay US$2800 for a 42"
1024x768. $1000 more will get you a lot bigger picture and a lot more
resolution.

Also, Circuit City has the same set for US$2500 right now.
