Huh; mine turns 20 this year, some to think of it. And it's the first
and only TV I've ever owned in my life (I'm 51 now).

I have a 32" that I bought ~4 years ago, but I still have one of the two
that my wife and I bought during our first couple of years of marriage
so I know it is at least 20 years old. The first one we bought 23 years
ago died a few years back. Amazing how long those old CRT sets lasted.
Hopefully, the new flat panels will be similar.

I'll have a large screen HDTV before year-end, but I'm still
contemplating the options. I like the idea of a projection system, but
they still don't have the brightness and clarity of some of the
projection and flat panel TVs. Decisions, decisions...
