40-42" Display Suggestion for HTPC

Hey guys,


Looking for some suggestions/direction for a 1080p 40-42" Display. I'm in North America. It's an HTPC box and will primarly be used for Blue-rays / DVD's (not that interested in cable TV viewing at the moment). It will be our only home computer so text apperance is important (internet browsing or word processing). It would be a bonus if the TV would support PC based gaming.


I had originally been looking at plasma and LCD but have recently been steered towards the LCD camp for this application.


I've been looking at the following but would appreciate any other suggestions. Budget is less than $1200 - these are the TV's I've been able to find locally.


samsung: LN40B610


sony: KDL40Z5100


toshiba: 40XV645U / 42ZV650U


sharp: LC40E77U


Thanks,


Colin
