LCDs do not have phosphors and therefore do not have the problem with
differential aging that CRTs and PDPs do. They do have a tendency for the
panels and filters to become burned, particularly the blue. DLPs that use a
3chip system could conceivably have the same problem in the filters, but the
chip itself will not burn like the LCD panel can.

I'm not denying that you might have burn-in, but LCD displays are
not very susceptable (sp?) to burn-in, especially when compared to CRT or
Plasma displays. As another poster said, DLP technology is not really
susceptable to burn-in, either.

Sounds like you just go unlucky.
