Re: Re: [Nolug] off-topic post (TV)

It's only a couple of years old. Too new for me to justify junking it and too old to be under warrenty. You make a good point about the techs and about expense. If the repair is too expensive then I may as well just buy a new one. Its only 32" and not HD or anything. And if JD is right then it will be expensive. I really just wish I could fix it myself.

Thanks guys -
