Gateway 50" HDTV-Ready Flat-Panel Plasma TV
Buy the extended warranty!!!!
Initially the tv was ok.  The picture and resolution were decent.  The TV comes with a one year warranty.  I'm 18 months in and the panel has apparently blown leaving me with a permanent black bar through the middle of the screen.  What's worse is Gateway is aware of this problem yet offers no solution and no support.  The tv has been rendered worthless and I'm now shopping for a new (non-Gateway) model.
