I was opining on the topic of whether or not the last of the CRT displays will be abundant in 50 years or so. I can vouch for the fact that integrated circuits post-MSI-scale-era rarely fail. But, like you guys have said, the rest of the circuit can fail and supply bad power and/or extraneous noise through one to destroy it. Let's face it; no one really "re-caps" any of these later sets...Yet compared to the 20+ yr. old stuff, the caps can often be worse. Not to mention the quality of solder work.
