This subject has come up
This subject has come up many many times in every forum I'm a member/visited.
I guess the ideal way of definatively answering this, is to install every type of plotter/system* combination, then do a 100% assessment in every possible area you may fish in your life time, crystal balling for any possible new spots and take extensive notes.
* OH, in preparation, you'll need a boat with a 50' bridge beam.
Pretty easy solution really - not! LOL
Seriously, whilst I have no idea which one is best, I've often seen comments that it depends on the area you are looking at. Apparently, in some areas, they are exactly the same between two systems (as Brad advised above) and in another, one is better than the other.
