DLP tv owners...

suppose my wife would leave the tv on once in a great while, on average 5-8hrs a night... would it be hurting anything else or would it just be leading to prematrue lamp failure? i come home at 5am from work and the tvs just on, nothings on it (the cable box is off)... its just sitting there... doing nothing... i cant even remember how many times ive told her to make sure the tv is shut off... but i guess the constant reminders havent worked... its not like its hard to tell when you turn it off... blue light means its on, yellow light means its shutting down... not that hard... i didnt work my *** off so we could buy this nice tv and then have it **** out early on me... i give up... /rant

Aside from my mother's car and the house, we own everything. Leaving such a large TV on all the time wastes power, and adds cost to the electric bill every month that could easily be avoided. Not to mention the added wear on the TV itself. If it were some ho-hum CRT TV that was only like $200, we wouldn't have an issue with it. But when a TV is worth far more than that, you don't want to just leave it on.
And when your older brother is 6'3 and 320lbs of fat, getting off his *** to turn the TV off before he sleeps for the next 20 hours is excercise that he very much needs.
Do you know how much bulbs for a projector cost? Any idea at all? You don't want to leave it on unless you're using it...it WILL eventually burn out and then you'll be crying.
