I'll go with the third opinion..

For some time, it was supposed that crt's would only last maybe 3 years or so, in a tv. I have an article on color tv, from 1963 in a magazine called "practical electronics(NOT the UK version), and the author stated that, if a color crt lasts the first six months, it would probably go on to give a good picture for its normal lifespan of about THREE YEARS!!(what a laugh) ALL of us have seen a LOT of crt's that seem to last FOREVER!! If they only did last three years or so, we would NEVER find an old tv, with a good tube(Perhaps he was looking into the future, to the '91 to '99 Zenith crts, that REALLY did only last about three years before shorting out, and KILLING the main Pc board!)
