Lots of miles on that one. Fires aren't the norm regarding end-of-life with older sets as far as I know. My 1987 Sony's picture isn't the sharpest, but it stays anyway. It's faring better than my XL-100 which has a rather dull picture and the on-screen display doesn't work, but I like its design so I'll keep it around with the intention of restoring it to tip-top shape, even if I need to wait years to locate a CRT, but that's just me. I'm not even sure if the CRT has significant problems, I guess I'll know once I start patching things up on the chassis, or acquire a tester.
