Are you happy with it? What is it?

Well I bought a Panasonic 61 inch projecter in Jan of 2008. The bulb has gone out three times now. The warranty for this ends Jan 2012. I have a standing offer from Panasonic to reimburse me for $500 or fix the bulb for free (but will do no more in the future).

They also have offered me a 50 inch plasma for approximately $375 more in cash. Tough calls here. Just wondering if anyone has any tube that they just love.

Thanks in advance for any responses.
