Joel Brinkley  |  May 28, 2003

Zenith P60W26P High-Definition plasma monitor
Joel Brinkley  |  May 24, 2003

More than a year ago, Zenith shook up the world of plasma televisions by introducing the DPD60W, the first 60-inch model&mdash;a behemoth that seemed to fill up a room. For Zenith, it was a statement product and a wonder to behold, though its performance problems held it back from the first rank of plasma displays (see the review in the January 2002 <I>SGHT</I>, also available archived at <A HREF="http://www.guidetohometheater.com">www.guidetohometheater.com</A>).
