Hi, I was just wondering, I know you aren't supposed to leave an image (like a paused dvd or game) on your screen or it will 'burn' into it. My question is, if you hook up your PC to a plasma and use the internet, will the browser image burn into the screen? If so why is there a monitor plug on the TV?
Sorry if this question sounds silly.

CRT's were very suceptible to it as you probably seen in old ATM's.
I understand Plasma is suceptiple as well.
It may be they figured PC would be playing a Movie.
If they don't provide a Computer input, another manufacturer will get those sales.
Manufacturers care about Sales, not damage you do to your TV, just buy another one of their TV's.
My Opinion
