A $250.00 modern TV that works for 10 to 15 years without issues? Maybe because I live in the lightning capitol of the US or Florida Power & Light is just sending spikey voltage jumps, but even with a $90.00 UPS to protect them I find most of the Recylcer / Throw away TV's I have tried in my and my family's homes do not work without issues for 5 years. I know we have to move foward, however it seems that it is harder and harder to buy real quality electronics any more. Large screen LCD's have pixel failures, DLP and others need $240.00 lamp replacements, and plasma had or has burn in issues. Bah Humbug.
