heh heh....

I can sympathize, their low end stuff worse than Walmart junk.  OTOH,
some of their products are quite good.  Their old Trinitron CRTs, when
good, were awesome.  I say "when good" cuz their 17" trini mons had a
failure rate of one in three!  

My mom has a whole wall of Sony junk.  VCRs, cassette decks, CD
players, equalizers, amps, DVD, etc.  All dead!!  Only the 30" trini
TV and the vaio desktop computer (17" trini mon) still work like they
are brand new.  Both at least a decade old.  This computer is a Sony
Vaio.  Of course it's all Asus mobo and other components, the lone
installed Sony DVD player having died.  Still have a Sony digital vid
camera that works.  And a 20 yr old steel cased D15 Sony CD player.
All the rest is junk.

Overall, I wouldn't buy Sony anything, either.  Then again, most
Japanese electronics is no better.  It's a crap shoot.  By the turn of
the century, I had a garage full of expired Japanese electronics junk
from stereo systems to cameras to TVs, etc.  Most barely made the
warrantee period.  Anymore, I buy the cheapest piece of junk from
Walmart that will do the job.  So I hafta replace it in two yrs.
Cheaper than replacing high priced junk.  ;)
