Well I know people like to pick up old TV's LCD tv to fix up.
My trusty Phillips 47" TV just turned off.. and is down for the count. To the best of my knowledge it is the power supply unit. The TV is in perfect shape.. dusty and with children's fingerprints. It's a heavy big thing... that I may decide to replace it.. or not (I bought a fancy new 50" tv for black friday in preparation for the day it died.. and greediness).
I have found a nice website that lists the part, a repair service or a capacitor repair.

I would probably have fixed it myself or kept it.. but with the kids.. no time, plus it weighs a ton, I don't feel like lugging it to the basement and clearing space for it.
** key here is that it just turned off out of the blue, and never turned on. Also no LED indicator is on anymore when the TV is off.. so it points to the power supply unit dying**
How about.. $40 bucks, come here I'll help you put it in your car. I can tell you from my last move.. it BARELY fits in the back seat of an Evo8 But it's heavy to lift by yourself once it's in there!
Let me know.. I've gone online and contacted the various people on craigslist that offer cash for broken TV's.
Will accept trades for anything cool or fun....
