btg24,
I can't speak to the internal components or specifications. I would go with whatever specs you have outlined.
Traditionally, plasmas have a faster Hz rate, and that's inherent with the technology. LCDs have gotten better, and our processing does deliver a 120Hz output on the 6-Series and up.

I'm looking to buy a plamsa or lcd. I was told that plasma was better for watching sports and anything fast action because they have 480hz processors opposed to lcd's which have 60 or 120hz processors. however I noticed when looking at spec. sheets online for Samsung plasmas they all seem to have 60hz processors. Is this true? Someone told me that plasmas refresh differently than lcd's and the speed of the processer doesn't matter. Is this true? I want to buy a Samsung but I'm very confused.
