Samsung is responsible for developing DLP rear projection technology... TI migh be responsible for DLP technology for projectors.

I don't think that's right - DLP technology in any form is TI.  How it is applied, improved, or used by manufacturers is another matter though.

Uh no TI exclusivly manufactures the DLP chips.

Samsung is responsible for aggressibly marketing a rear projection application of TI's DLP chips.

Samsung may have developed their own "light engine."  Do you know what a light engine is?  It's a light bulb and a lens.  I think TI even designs the color wheel.

I have a 52" RCA that I got for $1000. I like the performance enough and the value is great. The only problem is that is doesn't support 720p, which is its only downfall. 1080i looks awesome and I don't have any burn-in problems.

BTW- The TV does have DVI, but I haven't tried it yet.

Moral of the story: Shop around! and educate yourself as much as possible.
