Vizio P42 Review
The good: Relatively inexpensive; independent memory per input; decent color decoding; PC input; attractive design.
The bad: Inaccurate gamma and grayscale tracking; produces a light shade of black; false-contouring artifacts; some visible noise in bright scenes.
The bottom line: Discerning viewers won't be satisfied with its home-theater performance, but nobody can deny that the Vizio P42HDTV is a great bargain for casual TV watching.
