How does a CRT end up with a vertical line of dead pixels?


Faulty digital frame buffer.

I'd be surprised if a television like that had a frame buffer. What
would it be for?

Sylvia.

Read the specifications, the video is digital to the CRT. Basically a
'cross-over' model on the way to full (LCD etc.) digital. Frame
buffers are not unusual in these types of sets (the wide-screen
variety)
