Amazon.com Product Description
Why divide your focus between so-called "home" and "computer" entertainment? Norcent's 42-inch PT425 plasma display is optimized for both home theater and computer use. The set's stunning WVGA (852 x 480) resolution will make your eyes water with pleasure, and its built-in digital visual interface (DVI) greatly simplifies direct digital video connectivity to a computer (so long as the PC is equipped with a DVI video display adapter).

With a plasma screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (greater than 160 degrees, vertical/horizontal--wider, even, than LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim size--the PT425 is a mere 2.5 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting. Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed in close proximity to lighting or sound systems.

Now you'll be able to view not only computer desktop and Internet pages, but full-resolution HDTV (everything from VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, UVGA, UXGA, and DTV--480i, 480p, 1080i, 720p) all from one monitor. The PT425 performs 3:2 pulldown detection, a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. Digital video mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture.

With picture-in-picture, you can also watch two programs simultaneously (with four selectable window positions), and Norcent color-rendering technology is designed to provide the most realistic color rendering available in both NTSC (U.S.) and PAL (European) video formats. Other features include selectable aspect ratios (with zoom in/out) and a high (600:1) contrast ratio.
