The lifetime of the latest generation of plasma displays is estimated at 60,000 hours (or 27 years at 6 hours of use per day) of actual display time. More precisely, this is the estimated half life of the display, the point where the picture has degraded to half of its original brightness. It is watchable after this point, but is generally considered the end of the functional life of the display. I myself have been corrected, im somewhat out of touch with Plasma technology nowadays as its considered an obsolete technology, but the modern panels have a lifetime of 60,000 hours rather then 20,000 hours lol. No wonder OLED's arnt deemed viable at large scales yet!

The amount of times I see this being posted on different forums is hilarious, but I remember my dad drilling it into me about it being untrue a few years back. When I think about it logically, I know people who have had plasma's for longer then 6 years nowadays!
