I wonder if he's seen an OLED, preferably flat.
I gave away my Pioneer plasma because the hdmi board kept going out after a lightning storm. Replaced the board, then 3 weeks later another storm. So I replaced the actual IC on both boards. A few weeks later the new IC on the first board started to show signs of failure. Installed the second board then gave it to my brother. Bought a Panasonic plasma, same size 50". Then I recently sold it for $350, paid $650 over a year ago. Not bad on electronics, especially on a dying(sadly) item.
I now have a Panasonic 65" LED. I totally miss the way plasma. So I really understand why he wants to keep them. Though if I had the money, currently unemployed, I'll have an OLED.

The basement TV that's going to the apartment is a Pioneer, so he definitely wants to kep that one. AFAIK, it has worked flawlessly since it as bought in '06. The 60" replaced a Sony DLP and he never liked it as much, but I think that was older than the Pioneer. It finally cacked last Fall, so I got him the LG, which looks very good.
When my last TV pissed me off enough to finally replace it, I got a Panasonic Plasma and it's great. I'm more into audio, anyway.
