I have seen color wheels shatter on these, as well as make more noise than a garbage truck, and also have seen one with siezed bearings. Fans go bad too. A bulb might get yours running but it's a crap-shoot as for how long it'll keep running. Might be only days, you may get a couple years out of it. Whatever you do, DO NOT use one of the cheap, $30 bulbs they sell online. You'll regret it.

I found a bulb for this thing over at Best Buy for $94 and its a Philips bulb which I heard where the better bulbs to get for these, which I think I'm going to get that bulb once I save up some money to do so.
