Anecdote: I purchased a Samsung 46” mid-range DLP (rear projection) TV in 2005 for $2500. It was 720p and had one hdmi port. IIRC there were some plasma and perhaps early LCDs available for 2-3x the cost or more. So, I’d say the cost has gone down by at least 90%, if not more.

- angoragoats 2y agoHeh, yeah, and if you're not buying a high-end OLED or something like that, you're likely paying 90+% less than I paid in 2005 for my TV, for 8x the pixels. Plus you don't have to deal with the damned light engine crapping out after a few thousand hours of use :)
