When you compare some of the later silver front flat screen sets to earlier sets the cost cutting is evident. They still perform well and produce a great picture when they have a good CRT. They just seem to have more than their fair share of (premature) CRT failures.
I have a 14" that I trash picked that has never needed anything. Up until I recently cut off the cable it was bedroom set that I often left on all night.
Back when I was still selling used CRT sets I found so many of the 21" and 27" versions with bad CRTs that I stopped picking them up.
Perhaps I should grab the next one I see dumped (now that it was probably dumped for reasons other than failure) and see if it's any good.
