Samsung's 80-inch plasma for a mere $150,000

So Samsung is busting out the largest purchasable plasma display for those of you with 150 grand burning a hole in your pocket and a really, really large wall to put this in front of. They're targeting artsy institutions but we just know somebody is going to be watching the super bowl on this baby come February—so feel free to invite your friendly neighborhood Engadget staff member, okay? We really don't need very many excuses to desire an 80-inch plasma, (let's think: 80-inch? Check. Plasma? Double check.) but just in case you did need some greater purpose behind your longings, how about the fact that it does 1080 HD capability and has a 2000:1 contrast ratio? Yeah, okay, you get back with us on that.
