Well that TV sure didn't last long. The freakin thing is cooked. Came home, my Dad didn't smell anything odd, and I knew that stink. The smell of burnt electronics. I go around and checked the TV, it's on, no raster, no sound. Dad says it's turned off, nope, not off. Burning HOT on the top vent and emitting a very foul odor.

Should I just trash it? The CRT is probably ok, and can save that at least. It's the same CRT as the old IBM PC's and TRS 80 all in ones, but black and white, not green.
