I had a Samsung LCD that had some "issues". Samsung had a nearly 100% failure rate with some LCD sets manufactured during a certain window in time. That was the one I fixed. I also had a Samsung DLP set that had the main board go bad. I didn't bother with that one. More recent Samsung sets seem to be reliable.

I figured this was going to become a money pit. The LG plasma TVs have a bad rep for early failures.
