I'm really stupid when it comes to this - and there are so many options....

I'm on the housing committee for my chapter's new house, and we are wanting to get a flat screen tv for the main room. probably 40-50 inch range. We need one that's a good quality but not going to drain our wallets.

What is the difference btw plasma, lcd, and whatever other kind of options out there? If I remember correctly, plasma is a no go because images can burn into the screen where you can see it even when the tv is turned off, right? So what kind should we be looking for?
