All of the T4_ series are pretty good about such things... We have had T42 and T43 in the Himalays, Honduras, Alaska, and New Zealand.
The T41 has more problems with back light and inverter... We have yet to see the problem in a T42 or T43... But in humid climates, they are more susceptible to problems, and our shops are in New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, and Colorado where the air is dry... so we do not see as many failures as one might see in Florida, Massachussets, Oregon, etc. All the same, the T_ series holds up much better than any other brand, except some of the high end Dells. - - - - - Is there anything, apart from a really good chocolate cream pie and receiving a large unexpected check in the mail, to beat living among the awakenings of a lovely sunrise or the long shadows of a lazy sunset?
