I am amazed at how long these old Pioneers have worked well, and how good the picture is after 15 years or more. The biggest problems with them is no HDMI inputs and the weight of the old plasmas. My company sold a bunch along with full surround systems, and in many cases the only reasons we are replacing the system is because compatibility, or clients wanting bigger screens. I wish there was a good method of recycling the hundred pound plus monsters.
I guess I have a lot of affection for the old beasts. They made us a lot of money and made our customers happy for more years than I expected.
