     Sounds like Larry got a handle on it. I don?t know about the other guys 
but the brand I see less of than any other is Toshiba. Other wise Larrys said 
it all.

in the past 35 years i have repaired all the brands, and found 
easy fixs and dogs in all of them.
different years some were more trouble than others, but it 
change from year to year.
right now the sets we were used to are not worth repairing, 
and the big screen are so new, not much history to consider.
right now many manufacturers are just replacing PCB s, if it 
is more than an obvious problem, and the boards are costing 
150 to 500 bucks each, for the projections.
I recommend the brand that supports their set, with schematics 
parts, tech line help.
several are of little assistance, when I call, time is money, 
and some say leave message, and never call you back.
Personally i like expensive Japanese built sets.
Which ever helps me repair their set and make us both look 
good, and me a profit, i am behind.
Who cares which one last longest,
I dont make a living fixing sets that dont brake down.
Just my thoughts,
Larry
