Heheh, I have to agree with you.  That's why everything I own is a Sony.
Sounds confusing?  I'm extremely frugal, so I buy broken stuff and fix
it.  All my televisions, several car stereos, several MD
players/recorders, CD players, and my VCR's... all were broken Sony's
that people unloaded for cheap or free.  Sadly, I wish I could say the
Sony items that I purchased BRAND NEW were immune to problems, but this
is not the case.  My Mobile ES Sony CD changer will need to be sent in
for service a SECOND time.  I'd fix it myself, but it's still under
warranty.  I think my Sony Spressa CD-RW drive is having trouble too. 
It corrupted a CD-RW, and it won't read many CD-RW's that it made a long
time ago.  Guess I shoulda got a Plextor.

If you say so!!!  I've come across several broken Sony Trinitron
computer monitors too.  All my TV's are Trinitron, and every single one
of them have needed a flyback transformer.  Two of them needed the
transformer when I bought them, one of them had an unrelated problem
when it was given to me, and blew its transformer later on.

I don't doubt it!  I wouldn't have been able to so easily stock my house
full of Sony products if they were reliable. ;)

That's the one with the LCD touch screen right?

Want to sell it cheap?  Heheh, just kidding. ;)
