Benq plasma salvagable or write off?

[compucat]

The biggest service issue I hear about with all flat panel TVs is parts availability. Can you get parts for this set? I've never even heard of that brand. I don't really know anything about plasma sets either but it sounds like the display or its driver circuitry is bad. Has the set been dropped or suffered other impact damage? You should probably replace it with a tube type color console.

Plasmas would probably make a better ant farm than a fish tank.

I like this suggestion here. These old sets will probably outlast the sets they're making today anyway.

God, I love that... it sounds so genuine.

I want to see pix of the innards!
