Which brand is the best? What differences are there between different brands? I know that DLP is the way i want to go but I am not sure which brand and model actually has the best picture quality and features. I am looking for prob about a 55 incher, maybe 60-61. Also what does the P stand for in 1080p? Just curious, I thought all the dlp sets went to super high resolution so what does that mean? Any suggestions or advice are really appreciated im looking to buy a set real soon. Thanks 😉 ---

Both interlace and progressive scanning are horizontally oriented. Basic technical difference: progressive mode scans every line from top to bottom (1,2,3,4,5,6,etc.) while interlace mode scans every other line (1,3,5… to bottom, then jumps back to top to scan 2,4,6, etc.). The first set of odd lines, then, is Field 1, the second even numbered set is Field 2. ---

Dont forget it also has alot to do with the feed going into the TV. Cable HD sucks balls compared to directv or dish. Even my OTA HD feeds blow cables away, with a simple set of rabbit ears. I mean is there a huge difference between the new 7 color wheels compared to the older ones, i dont think so at this time. DLP was good when it came out, it was the nlatest and greatest, but there is better out there now, and since plasma has come so far from when it was initially introduced, that might be the way to go. ---
