don't give in... find someone in your town that will come out and give you a free estamite...
THEN
make a knowledgeable decision...
unless you have money to burn...it may turn out that a new set is the most logical but get the estimate first...

Re: To fix or not? that is the question!
I've replaced 5 of my sets, but the big screen hasn't gone out yet. It's hard to get rid of a perfectly good one. But if my set broke I wouldn't think twice about getting a new one. Get a 50+" LCD!

Re: To fix or not? that is the question!
get a new one! at least everytime one of my electronics breaks, such as a computer or TV we usually get a new one just becuase ours became outdated and usually cost 80 percent of the buying price of a new one to fix, if you got 4 years out of it and the cost to fix is near the cost to replace id replace and get a new better more advanced tv.

Re: To fix or not? that is the question!
Once you've gone flat(screen), you'll never go back!
AND, fix the old one yourself! (for the kid's room)

what are you drinking...you are making a big assumption that they (he-she) has the technical knowledge to do this...if they did why would they even post the thread on this subject...i think you snorted some bad weed...

Re: To fix or not? that is the question!
Get a new one. Having the latest and greatest is always nice. I've got a Toshiba 1080 plasma at my house, which has bitchin picture quality. But, I was house sitting for my family a few weeks ago and watched their new Bravia, and well lets just say; I ****ing hate you Mikejr.  Lucky bastid.
