Amazon.com Product Description
Daewoo's 42-inch widescreen plasma offering is large enough and affordable enough, relatively speaking, to make it a strong contender for any style-conscious home theater enthusiast. The DTS-42 is an EDTV (enhanced-definition television) with native 480p pixel resolution and display compatibility with standard-, enhanced- and full high-definition input sources (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i), making it perfect for use with progressive-scan DVD players, personal computers, and DTV set-top receivers alike.

With a plasma screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (wider, even, than those of most LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim profile--the DTS-42 is a mere 3.2 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting. Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed near lighting or sound systems. You do, however, need to be wary of image burn-in (wherein long-held stationary images leave a permanent impression in the screen).

The DTS-42 offers 853 x 480 native pixel resolution, a stunning 1,000:1 contrast ratio, high 1,000 cd/m2 peak luminance, and broad (160 degrees, horizontal/vertical) viewing angles so everyone can enjoy the best seat in the house.

Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

The DTS-42 also performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; reverse 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

A digital, dynamic comb filter enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt). Other image enhancements include CCF (Capsulated Color Filter) technology for natural colors, a MGDI (Meta Genuine Digital Image) engine, and ISM (Image Sticking Minimization), which guards against image burn-in)

An onboard NTSC tuner lets you watch SD television right out of the box.

What's in the Box
TV, remote control, 2 ferrite-cores (for optional speaker connections), 1 component-video cable, 1 coaxial RF cable, 2 stereo analog/composite-video cables, 1 AC power cable, and a user's manual.

One shot wonder.......2007-03-29

I loved this thing at first. Software installed fast, and the interface is intuitive, but I'm a digital artist, and I have hundreds of large image files that I need to backup on a regular basis. The 2nd or 3rd time I backed up, it said the storage was full, and I knew there was no way it was full. I emailed tech support for SimpleTech, and the guy recommended doing a full backup instead of an incremental one to start over. That was a bit of trouble, as I needed to move files around to keep from losing some, but I did it,(and lost some anyway that I'd forgotten about) and it was fine for a couple of times after that, but once again, it said it was full. Support said do a reformat. Well, that's just more trouble than I was prepared for, so I'm buying a new backup, and I'm pretty sure it won't be SimpleTech.
