This thing scares me. You need to see the chassis.
The TV is in a house that is one step short of being condemned; it is full of junk, papers, trash and god knows what else. It has probably sat longer than I've been alive, in an unheated/uncooled environment. Great gram only believed in having fans in her room, nowhere else in the house. There is probably rat residue and other nasties in it; the chassis shows several spots of rust. An interesting note is that the back cover has a metal EMF-shield type of plastic on it. Some of it has flaked off in places.
Looking at my 21-T639 and it seems a lot more reassuring than this thing. It has a whole lot more boards, pots, and tubes. Forgive me for being a wimp but I'd much rather pull out the 639 chassis than this.
Think of it this way; you're giving a 5th grader a choice between a college algebra book (639) and then a doctoral calculus book (Motorola).... eithe way I don't know up from down.
