I need some sympathy guys and gals

I have a Toshiba DLP 46" HDTV and the mercury lamp just went "loud pop", ie: burned out. 4:30 PM in a small town with no hope of replacement before Monday. Hawks wrestling tonight and Hawk women playing too and NCAA BB this weekend. Must be Murphy's Law. Granted, I've got 4 other TVs in the house but I'm sure you get the picture. Thanks for letting me vent.

Well, it sucks that you will miss the biggest upset in UNI history, a great win by the women, and 5 individual championships in high def... but at least you will get to see them!

I know how you feel, mine went out on Super Bowl Sunday luckily I had a spare on hand already.

What does a replacement cost? $350, arent you almost better off selling current tv on craigslist and buying a new one?
