RE: Sony Wega 60" biting the dust. What's next, 60" or larger

Posted by grantv on October 9, 2009 at 12:07:16:
Sorry, can't offer anything except my sympathy. Is it like "they say", they don't make them like they used to? 6 years seems pretty short, but what can one do.
My 27" CRT Hitachi still has a perfect picture to this day, and it's around 19 years old! My 12 year old Sony 35" CRT, 100% perfect, the RCA 27" CRT my wife brought in, 100% perfect (not a good TV in the first place IMO, but...) and around 12 years old also.
I'm pretty much waiting for one to die so I have a reason to get something bigger/nicer for our sunroom to replace the Hitachi (me, not my wife, she'd rather I just put a crowbar in my wallet and spend the money). :)
