A question about the circuitry of modern TVs

Hi-
I don't equate overall reliability or quality with number of boards in a set.

Now, a lot of old tubed tv's were circuitboard-less, and used point-to-point wiring instead. That, IMO, is a substantial point since the p-t-p's have the potential to be much more reliable when used with vacuum tubes.
