You might be surprised if you saw a serial digital feed on a broadcast
monitor. Many folks would find it to be totally satisfactory -- if they
ever got to see it.

AFAIK, it maybe "satisfactory" but it is not the best quality currently
available.

Yes, it IS, in terms of entertainment video. Any "television"
type programming you are going to encounter is either SDTV
or HDTV; the vast majority is SDTV, and you would be
surprised at just how good a 720 x 480 image can look on
the right display.

I prefer "first class" uncompressed linear-PCM video signal viewed
through a "first class" plasma screen.

You still don't seem to have any clue at all how "linear PCM"
plays into all this...


Both LCD and plasma are more resistant to EMI/RFI than CRTs. Plamsa
offers better clarity than LCD or CRT.

No, those technologies are more resistant to MAGNETIC
interference than the CRT; this is not "EMI" or "RFI." It is
also impossible that either plasma or the LCD would be superior
vs. the other in terms of "clarity," if by that you mean delivered
image resolution. Both are fixed-format technologies, so when
driven at their native format, each pixel of the image is as clear
as it's ever going to get.
